Invoked member is not supported in a dynamic assembly

Chris Diesel — Fri, 28 Jun 2013 11:47:52 GMT

Trying to move from .Net 3.5 to 4.0 and I'm getting "The invoked member is not supported in a dynamic assembly." on this line:

StrataFrameApplication.RunApplication();

Any ideas???

Great, that did it! Thanks for the help! :)

Nope, sorry, Localization is in the UI namespace:

MicroFour.StrataFrame.UI.Localization.RegisterEmbeddedXmlFile(typeof(MicroFour.StrataFrame.Security.SessionLock).Assembly, "MicroFour.StrataFrame.Security.Messages_1033.XML");

RE: Invoked member is not supported in a dynamic assembly

Great! I'm almost there, but I'm getting the below message when I put that line in:

'Localization' does not exist in the namespace 'MicroFour.StataFrame.Messaging'

Do I need to reference another assembly?

RE: Invoked member is not supported in a dynamic assembly

Yes, that's because none of the localization files have been loaded. You can manually load the files for the MicroFour StrataFrame Security assembly like this:

MicroFour.StrataFrame.Messaging.Localization.RegisterEmbeddedXmlFile(typeof(MicroFour.StrataFrame.Security.SessionLock).Assembly, "MicroFour.StrataFrame.Security.Messages_1033.XML");

I now get the below message going into the SecurityDialog. Is this releated to setting:

StrataFrameAppLication.IgnoreLoadLocalization = true;

LocalizationKeyNotFoundException

The specified key [SFSTText - None] was not found within the localization database.

KeyNotFoundException

The message key [SFSTText - None] could not be found in the localization data.

I'll go with option 1 for now.

Thanks!

That actually makes sense that "GeneratedCode" would be a dynamic assembly. Looks like there are 2 ways to fix this:

1) If you're not using localization, set StrataFrameApplication.IgnoreLoadLocalization = true; before you call StrataFrameApplication.Run() and the whole process will be skipped.

2) If you need localization, you'll need to change the second If test in the StrataFrameApplication.LoadLocalizationFromAssembly() method to have a second OrElse like this:

If TypeOf LoadedAssembly Is System.Reflection.Emit.AssemblyBuilder OrElse LoadedAssembly.IsDynamic Then

This can only be done if you're building in 4.0 because the Assembly.IsDynamic properti does not exist in 2.0.

One of those should get you fixed.

Not sure if this is right...

LoadedAssembly is showing: {Microsoft.GeneratedCode, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null}

RE: Invoked member is not supported in a dynamic assembly

StrataFrame Team — Tue, 11 Jun 2013 08:37:36 GMT

Yeah, sorry, it's looping through the assemblies, right? What assembly is it trying to call GetManifestResourceNames on?

RE: Invoked member is not supported in a dynamic assembly

Chris Diesel — Tue, 11 Jun 2013 08:36:15 GMT

In strataframeapplication.vb

erroring on this line...'-- Check the manifests for the xml files and register them if possible

For Each lcFile As String In LoadedAssembly.GetManifestResourceNames()

Can you build SF in debug mode and break in the StrataFrameApplication.LoadLocalizationFromAssembly() method? It would help to know what assembly is causing the error.

Saw that ealier and tried it again but doesn't help.

What is the call stack of the exception that is thrown? Does it contain Assembly.GetTypes() or AssemblyBuilder.GetTypes()? Googling the error it seems as though the .NET 4.0 runtime has tightened down the ability to use Assembly.Load dynamically to load assemblies that are not explicitly referenced, for instance, plug-ins. There is an app.config setting that can allow them to run, though:

Yes.

Have you recompiled the SF source code in 4.0?
