Incompatibility of library versions?

[fox-15]

Hello! After the release of the ExcelMapper 5.2.542 update, an error appeared when using the ClosedXML.Report 0.2.8 library. When calling the ClosedXML.Report function var template = new XLTemplate(file); an error started appearing: MissingMethodException: Method not found:

'System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable`1 SixLabors.Fonts.FontMetrics.GetGlyphMetrics(SixLabors.Fonts.Unicode.CodePoint, SixLabors.Fonts.ColorFontSupport)'.

But how did this become possible? These are different libraries!

While version ExcelMapper 5.2.535 works fine!

What could be causing this error?

Sincerely, Alexander

NPOI, the lib used by ExcelMapper, made some nuget updates. Install SixLabors.Fonts 1.0 (non beta) to your project.

Installed SixLabors.Fonts 1.0.0 (11.08.2023) but the result is the same, cannot execute var template = new XLTemplate(file);

Method not found: 'System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable`1 SixLabors.Fonts.FontMetrics.GetGlyphMetrics(SixLabors.Fonts.Unicode.CodePoint, SixLabors.Fonts.ColorFontSupport)'.

try to add this entry to csproj:

<AutoGenerateBindingRedirects>true</AutoGenerateBindingRedirects>

[fox-15]

For some reason this parameter line destroyed the entire project, but it’s okay, I’ll stay on the old version, it’s not critical. Thanks for trying to help

[MagicAndre1981]

wait until the other project releases a new version which also uses te stable version of SixLabors.Fonts

ExcelMapper 5.2.542 is actually using SixLabors.Fonts 1.0 (Since NPOI 2.6.2 is using SixLabors.Font 1.0).

I confirmed that ClosedXML.Report 0.2.8 also uses SixLabors.Fonts 1.0. I think this issue is nothing to do with ExcelMapper or NPOI. Can you open a issue in ClosedXML.Report repo?

[fox-15]

I went back to version 5.2.528, it works without errors

Closing this for now. ExcelMapper just has a direct dependency on NPOI, so the issue is likely somewhere else.
