Packaging from VS extension #662

Open josesimoes opened 1 year ago

josesimoes commented 1 year ago

Describe the bug

When referencing the CommunityToolkit.Mvvm package from a Visual Studio 2022 extension, the extension fails to load due to missing files.

Here's the log from VS activity log: System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'CommunityToolkit.Mvvm, Version=8.1.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=4aff67a105548ee2' or one of its dependencies

When trying to debug this, it seems that System.Buffers aren't packaged in VSIX (nor deployed to the experimental instance).

Any thoughts on this? Thanks!

Update on this: after a several attempts to find the root cause, it turns out that the culprit is Microsoft.Bcl.AsyncInterfaces v7.0.0. Downgrading MVVM community to v8.0 along all the other refs to Microsoft.Bcl.AsyncInterfaces in the project so v6.0 is referenced fixes the issue. Extension is loading again and fully operational.
