Add instructions #43

Closed elibroftw closed 5 years ago

elibroftw commented 5 years ago

Would it be possible for you to add instructions to aid in setting up the project? I'm having trouble getting rid of 92 build errors and cloning it and opening it up in Visual Studio 2019 (after using InstallerProjects and Microsoft.Multilingual.VSExtension too). Example of one. CS0234 The type or namespace name 'Practices' does not exist in the namespace 'Microsoft' (are you missing an assembly reference?)

Ok, let's create some instructions. The packages don't install correctly after cloning (I never tried). I'll see if I can improve it.

For now I got it to work with:

Install: Microsoft Visual Studio Installer Projects (Visual Studio 2017, 2019)
Install: Multilingual App Toolkit v4.0 (VS 2017)
go to GitHub - https://github.com/SamDel/ChromeCast-Desktop-Audio-Streamer - Clone in Visual Studio
Open solution file
Go to: Visual Studio - Tools - NuGet Package Manager - Package Manager Console

Reinstall packages manually, one by one:

Update-Package -reinstall Unity
Update-Package -reinstall Zeroconf
Update-Package -reinstall Google.ProtocolBuffers
Update-Package -reinstall System.Reactive.Core
Update-Package -reinstall System.Reactive.Linq
Update-Package -reinstall System.Reactive.PlatformServices
Update-Package -reinstall System.Reactive.Windows.Threading

Does that work for you?

No, but that PMC was useful rather than having to search NuGet for each package 🙄. I get this error https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5567945/type-or-namespace-name-does-not-exist

Severity Code Description Project File Line Suppression State Error CS0234 The type or namespace name 'Practices' does not exist in the namespace 'Microsoft' (are you missing an assembly reference?)

I completely overlooked my comment. I meant to say could you also add instructions to the ReadME?

UPDATE: EnterpriseLibrary.Common was needed. Now I'm getting

The type or namespace name 'Unity' does not exist in the namespace 'Microsoft.Practices' (are you missing an assembly reference?)

SamDel commented 5 years ago

I will add the instructions to the ReadMe/wiki when done 😊!

Error CS0234 The type or namespace name 'Practices' does not exist in the namespace 'Microsoft' (are you missing an assembly reference?)

That's the Microsoft.Practices.Unity package missing. Did you try: Update-Package -reinstall Unity in the Package Manager Console?

Maybe you should get a new clone!

Installing Cquential.Microsoft.Practices.Unity got rid of the error.

elibroftw commented 5 years ago

I got it working! I had to add using System.Windows.Forms; to Program.cs

SamDel commented 5 years ago

Nice 😊!

I also noticed the missing 'using', and added a fix in the code. I will add the instructions to the Readme and I will have a look if if can be improved.

elibroftw commented 5 years ago

Okay thanks for your response, it helped me google better queries. I'm going to close this now.

elibroftw commented 5 years ago

Oh yeah after a reclone, I didn't even have to do my other installations
