Hi @fdbkersten

We will have to investigate and try get to the bottom of what's going on there. Just a couple quick questions my side,

• It sounds like you've had this more than once - how frequently is this happening and its there "common theme" to what your are doing when it happens?
• you mentioned this started today - anything which happened today which may have contributed ?

In the meantime, I'll try start with that trace but any additional info would be appreciated.

Hi @fdbkersten,

By any chance was this instance of Intent Architect opened by double-clicking a .isln file? If so, can you try close Intent and start it up from your Start menu directly and see if it resolves the issue?

Hi @fdbkersten,

We've now worked out how to reliably reproduce this issue and will be fixing it as soon as possible.

When you open Intent Architect by opening a particular .isln file through Windows Explorer, if you try running the software factory for an application in a different solution to the one originally opened, then this error occurs.

So the workaround for now is to restart Intent Architect just through the Start Menu and not for a particular .isln file.

Apologies for any inconvenience caused.

Perfect thanks for the feedback

Hi @Magicza,

This is fixed for the upcoming 4.1.0 version of Intent.

@Magicza, this fix has now been made available in 4.0.3-pre.5 if you want to install the latest pre-release, alternatively you can wait for the final 4.0.3 release.
