CS1003 Syntax error, ',' expected TensorSharp D:\Seq2SeqSharp-master (1)\Seq2SeqSharp-master\TensorSharp\Cpu\CpuRandom.cs

Hello Zhong
First I appreciate the contribution,
Previously I have used RNNSharp successfully for NER task, I am curious to apply this new version too, however, when I try to run it generates huge error list e.g
"IntPtr is a type but is used like a variable" especially in TensorSharp project in the following line of code
using (NativeWrapper.BuildTensorRefPtr(input_i, out IntPtr input_iPtr))
using (NativeWrapper.BuildTensorRefPtr(output_i, out IntPtr output_iPtr))
using (NativeWrapper.BuildTensorRefPtr(indices_i, out IntPtr indices_iPtr))
{
CpuOpsNative.TS_SpatialMaxPooling_updateOutput_frame(input_iPtr, output_iPtr, indices_iPtr,
Thanks in Advance

How did you run Seq2SeqSharp ? Can you please share command line (config file), sample of training corpus with me ? I can take a look.

Can you please try release package and see if it works for you.

Dear Zhong Many thanks
i tried the new version , however when I try to load it VS 2015 it generates the below error messages:

Thanks @My-Khan

The Seq2SeqSharp is built by Visual Studio 2019 and dotnet core. So it seems VS 2015 is too old to support it. You may try to open it by Visual Studio Community or Visual Studio Code. They are all free to download and use.
