Hi,

First, My english is not good!

I just downloaded the Liquid component. When I try to add the reference to the dlls, I got an error from VS2008 saying that the system cannot find the reference specified.

Thanks for helping!

Hi,

I'm not sure about this.  Its a very basic thing to do adding a reference to a DLL.  Can you add references to other DLLS, for example standard .NET ones?

Thanks!

Hi dan,

When I add references to other DLLs, Visual Studio accepts it normally. Have you had this case before?

Thanks!

Alirio.

Hi,

This is strange and I will have to throw this question out to others who may have experienced this.  I assume you are you using VS2008 with all the correct service packs and all your SL3 tools are installed?

Thanks!

Hi Dan,

My VS2008 is in Spanish however the error message translated to english means that: 'The system can not find the reference specified'. I ran VS2008 as Administrador to verify every permission problem, however I got the same. My VS2008 version is 9.0.30729.1 SP W/SL3.

Thanks for your help!

I get the same error when I try to add a reference in VS 2010 beta 2, I ran the Dependency Walker program on the liquid.dll and the result I get:

Error: Modules with different CPU types were found.

Warning: At least one module has an unresolved import due to a missing export function in a delay-load dependent module.

The liquid.dll is marked as an x86 module the rest as x64.  I am running on an x64 system, so this might well be my problem, is there a 64bit version of the controls?

Thanks,

Scott

Hi Scott,

Are you sure it says they are 64-bit?  The current version is 32-bit (x86) only, a possible cause of problems using these DLLs is that they may be blocked.  Right-click the dll and open the properties dialog, does it have an Unblock button at the bottom?

Thanks!

Opps,

Sorry, Your right all of yours are 32bit. But the depenency walker program showed the error that the liquid.dll (32bit) was referencing 64bit system dll's.  That may be a normal situation for 64bit machines since the system dll's are 64bit.  Just to be sure, I checked again and all the downloaded dll's had been unblocked.  Also I tried adding them to VS 2008 and they loaded into the toolbox with no problem.  Yet they still wont load into VS 2010 beta 2, thats not really a problem as I can use VS 2008.

Thanks,

Scott  

I solved the problem with VS 2010 beta 2, on loading the dll into the toolbox it is unable to find any of the other required dll's in the current directory (i.e. where the dll's being loaded from).  So I copied all of the liquid dll's into the 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE\PublicAssemblies' directory then all the controls loaded with no problem.

Thanks again,

Scott
