Problems trying to develop a WDE extension

[Gabi]

Hello.

I'm trying to develop my first WDE extension (I did some work on IWS before). I created a new project on Visual Studio 2012, set WDE as the external startup project and added all the Genesyslab.* DLLs as references. I can build the project (generate), but when I try to debug it I get the following error:

[quote]Resolution of the dependency failed, type = "Genesyslab.Desktop.Infrastructure.IBootstrapController", name = "". Exception message is: The current build operation (build key Build Key[Genesyslab.Desktop.Infrastructure.IBootstrapController, null]) failed: The current type, Genesyslab.Desktop.Infrastructure.IBootstrapController, is an interface and cannot be constructed. Are you missing a type mapping? (Strategy type BuildPlanStrategy, index 3)[/quote]

Does anyone know what the problem may be?

Thanks in advance.

In what version of .Net did you build the project?

[Gabi]

.Net Framework 4.5 and 4.5.1. This also happens when I try to build the Extension Sample.

Oh, I had forgotten about this thread, sorry. I "solved" this problem by switching from Windows 10 to Windows 7 and starting over.

Hello,

Was switching from W10 to W7 your fix?

I'm facing the same issue than you, but I'm in W7 so for that there's no problem, I developed my WDE extension in framework 4.5,
Any idea of what could be causing this issue?

Regards.

I'm afraid I can't tell exactly what the fix was. I do know I was running Windows 10 on a virtual machine and that was known to cause problems, so I switched to Windows 7, but I also redid the project from scratch, so there may have been a problem in the old version of the project which did not arise in the newer one, or perhaps it was, indeed, a Windows compatibility issue.
