Realm namespace

[sandr01d]

What happened?

Since upgrading to version 11.1.0 I get the following compiler error:

error CS0118: 'Realm' is a namespace but is used like a type

When trying to use the Realm type like this:

using Realms;

public class Example
{
    private Realm realm;
}

Fully qualifying the type does resolve the error:

public class Example
{
    private Realms.Realm realm;
}

I think this might have something to do with the addition of the Realm namespace in #3323

Repro steps

1. Create a new Unity project and add the realm package
2. Create the following class:

using Realms;

public class Example
{
    private Realm realm;
}

Version

11.1.0

What Atlas Services are you using?

What type of application is this?

Client OS and version

Code snippets

You're right - we must have overlooked that -

realm-dotnet/Realm/Realm.UnityUtils/DeviceInfo.cs

Line 22 in eca251b

namespace Realm.UnityUtils

this should have been Realms.UnityUtils.

Upgrading to the version 11.1.1 has this issue in .NET Maui as build error.

I can't reproduce this in Maui. Is this happening for you in a new project or an existing one? If you can upload a repro case here, that would be super helpful.

I was able to track that down - looks like the xamarin tooling is generating a namespace that is the same as the assembly name (in our case Realm.PlatformHelpers). I'll try and see how we can disable or at least configure this.
