Compilation error: Sequence contains no matching element

[pberggreen]

After upgrading from version 1.0.0-beta4 to version 1.0.1 I get the compilation error below.
I have only one aspect with the following attribute:
[Advice(Advice.Type.Around, Advice.Target.Method)]

Hi, thanks for the report.

Honestly this json serialization/deserialization is quite bugy from the very beginning. We're thinking to get rid of it.
So this is a chance to ask -> are you ok to have runtime reference to AspectInjector.Broker.dll (netstandard1.0) and instead have everything much more stable?

As to your particular case -> try to recompile everything with 1.0.1 version (check other projects references and make rebuild all). If is doesn't help, please drop a project sample here, so we can reproduce the error.

Thanks

I have tried rebuilding my solution with both version 1.0.1 and 1.5.2-beta and I still get that compilation error.

Frankly, I don't know the consequences of having a runtime ref to AspectInjector.Broker.dll (netstandard1.0), but more stability sounds nice :-)

[pamidur]

it is just an additional small dll :) no more than that

The issue might happen if you have a dll with aspects which is built using 1.0.*-beta. And then you try using those aspects in another project with 1.0.1 release

[pberggreen]

Unfortunately, I cannot send you the whole solution and my smaller sample project compiles without problems.
Any suggestions?

[pamidur]

I could only suggest make CleanAll, manually remove all obj and bin folders. And try again.

We will be looking further into this issue.

[pberggreen]

Unfortunately, Clean All and removing all obj and bin folders didn't help.
I'll look forward to a better solution.

Should be fixed in https://github.com/pamidur/aspect-injector/releases/tag/2.0.0-beta1 . However beware there are braking changes, you'd need to modify you code code (slightly)
