@nguyenm100 What version of mono are you using?

nguyenm100 commented 8 years ago

Yes that was the issue. Perhaps a better error message?

rainersigwald commented 8 years ago

I think this message is left over from long ago, when we supported only one runtime and therefore had higher confidence that such an error was our fault rather than that of the runtime. I agree that we should think about changing it. I'll change the title of this bug.

This appears to still be broken but only triggers if the user is running in DEBUG mode. https://github.com/dotnet/msbuild/blame/da900e2a6d7109e973f9eb712b4afdb456610c9b/src/MSBuild/XMake.cs#L825

However, I just filed an issue with MSBuildLocator (I think that is where the bug is) for a TypeLoadException that might be best logged better here as well. See: https://github.com/microsoft/MSBuildLocator/issues/126
