alternate-ui 'From live game client process' mode does not work for me with the latest sanderling

[KoukatsuMahoutsukai]

Hello, first of all thanks for this wonderful library/repo Michael.

alternate-ui From live game client process mode does not work for me with the latest sanderling(09dacec88c063900cd8ee5911b357fce9e8e0241) paired with the latest elm-time release 2023-7-13 (b512ad944c286b14b6f23b6221ef8fe6ff25ffa1), although reading from file is working properly. getting an error as follows:

Failed to get IDs of the EVE Online client processes: BadStatus: 500 ({"SetupNotCompleteResponse":["Failed to create volatile process: System.Exception: Failed to setup the volatile process: System.Exception\r\n ---> System.NotSupportedException: Can't create a metadata reference to an assembly without location.\r\n at Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.MetadataReference.CreateFromAssemblyInternal(Assembly assembly, MetadataReferenceProperties properties, DocumentationProvider documentation)\r\n at Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.Scripting.Script.GetReferencesForCompilation(CommonMessageProvider messageProvider, DiagnosticBag diagnostics, MetadataReference languageRuntimeReferenceOpt)\r\n at Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.CSharp.Scripting.CSharpScriptCompiler.CreateSubmission(Script script)\r\n at Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.Scripting.Script.GetCompilation()\r\n at Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.Scripting.Script`1.GetExecutor(CancellationToken cancellationToken)\r\n at Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.Scripting.Script`1.RunAsync(Object globals, Func`2 catchException, CancellationToken cancellationToken)\r\n at Pine.VolatileProcessCSharp.RunScript(String script) in D:\\a\\elm-time\\elm-time\\implement\\elm-time\\Pine\\VolatileProcessCSharp.cs:line 47\r\n --- End of inner exception stack trace ---\r\n at Pine.VolatileProcessCSharp..ctor(Func`2 getFileFromHashSHA256, String csharpScriptCode, Object scriptGlobals) in D:\\a\\elm-time\\elm-time\\implement\\elm-time\\Pine\\VolatileProcessCSharp.cs:line 40\r\n at ElmTime.Platform.WebService.PublicAppState.PerformProcessTaskCreateVolatileProcess(CreateVolatileProcessStruct createVolatileProcess) in D:\\a\\elm-time\\elm-time\\implement\\elm-time\\Platform\\WebService\\PublicAppState.cs:line 466"]})

upon testing different versions/commits, rolling back the sanderling to april 25 commit (bfcc3eb8bf22f2aa4ca874e0e2298de3829e73e8) paired with elm-time release of 5-21 or earlier works no problem. latest sanderling paired with any elm-time release does not work for me.

TLDR: I think something on june 21 commit of sanderling or past the 5-21 release of elm-time broke the alternate-ui live reading? cant confirm if its a only me problem also.

Thank you for sharing your experience and the workaround!

Agree, looks the same to me.

My current thesis is that the problem was caused by this change in the build: https://github.com/elm-time/elm-time/commit/3f4a2dc53a853cda7449fb671d1682b76654aa07

I think this part of the error message that you saw hints at the cause being switching away from the .NET extraction process on program startup:

Can't create a metadata reference to an assembly without location.

As a workaround, the latest version of the alternate UI live reading should work when you use the version v2023-05-21 of elm-time.exe, from https://github.com/elm-time/elm-time/releases/tag/v2023-05-21

Another workaround then is to use the build of elm-time.exe with "separate-assemblies". For example, here is that build variant from the latest release: https://github.com/elm-time/elm-time/releases/download/v2023-07-13/elm-time-separate-assemblies-b512ad944c286b14b6f23b6221ef8fe6ff25ffa1-win10-x64.zip
