DLL fails to load

[wally96334]

Hi,

This is a WPF app developed using Visual Studio 2017 Community on a Win 10 Pro system.

This is the error that I am getting:

EDIT:

I removed the reference mentioned above (ScintillaNET.WPF.dll) to see if the rest would pack. I now have a problem merging a DLL that was written in JScript.NET.

System.NullReferenceException: Field "Microsoft.JScript.RegExpObject <a5fbbc7a-272a-4757-977d-93b16e75e4a5>JScript 0::regexp 7" not found in type "<a5fbbc7a-272a-4757-977d-93b16e75e4a5>JScript 0".

Any assistance with this would be appreciated.

THANKS!

To be able to help you we'd need better repro steps, ideally if you can include the .zip file with the assemblies (the minimal set required to reproduce this) as well as the exact command-line you're passing to ILRepack.exe in a cmd file such as repro.cmd. I should be able to run repro.cmd and have it repack and reproduce the issue. Thanks!

Sorry, not sure how to help here without a repro.
