Recipe Framework Error: MetaGuidancePackage.dll not copied

24 02 2008

Some time before the Guidance Toolkit for Visual Studio 2008 was released to the world, I couldn’t resist trying out the previous GAT version on VS 2008. After some fun and tears, I decided to wait (and uninstalled that version as a result).

Release day

The minute GAT for VS 2008 was released, I installed it and created my first project receiving the following exception:

When you examine the exception more closely, you’ll notice that it states that it could not load a type from “MetaGuidancePackage, version=1.3.0.0“. Strange, as this was the version I previously removed from my system. Upon inspecting the “<drive> :P rogram FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio 9.0Common7IDEPublicAssemblies” folder, the version was indeed “1.3″.

Luckily, the same file (the correct version that is) was also copied to the GAT installation directory , being “<drive> :P rogram FilesMicrosoftGuidance Automation Toolkit for Visual Studio 2008“.

A mere “copy and paste” between the folders and the problem was fixed…
