Examples_SL solution won't compile

[Terry]

Hi:

I've just downloaded  your 8/12 release and am trying to run your examples_SL solution.  I'm getting lots of errors like the following.  Is the example code still Silverlight 2 Or am I missing something basic?

Thanks,

Terry

Are you running SL2 or SL3?

[Terry]

SL 3

[Ben Hayat]

Somehow it lloks like it's not finding the DLLs for SL3 version. Are sure you installed the SL3 version of Telerik controls?

[Terry]

It looks like the references are pointing the right place, e.g. C:\Program Files\Telerik\RadControls for Silverlight Q2 2009\Binaries\Silverlight\Telerik.Windows.Controls.Gauge.dll runtime version v2.0.50727 Version 2009.2.812.1030.  And that's the only subdirectory in C:\Program Files\Telerik, so there is no other version on the system.

I am able to launch the examples, but I get a WebDev.WebServer.exe error at the start ("has encountered a problem and needs to close").  The examples seem to run fine after that.

[Terry]

I removed the VB project and I'm down to 6 compile errors rather than thousands.  I don't carea abotu VB.  maybe I don't have some VB component installed.  The 6 errors all relate to GridView.CS, either missing LoadingDataEventArgs, LoadingDataEventArgs or DomainDataSource.  I've listed them at the bottom.

When I go ahead and run the script debugger gives "Unhandled Error in Sliverlight Application Code 2103 Category InitializeError, Message Invalid or malformed application: Check Manifest"  TestPage.html line 54 character 13.  I imagine this is the result of the above missing object definitions.

What am I missing?

Hi Terry,

First of all sorry for the late reply.
I've tried to reproduce your problem but unfortunately to no avail. I've tried to compile the SL Examples.sln in Debug and Release mode on machines with XP and Vista OS, with VS 2008 SP1.
That's why I would like to ask you for some more info about you scenario:
1. What is your OS?
2. Which is your VisualStudio version (I've heard about a compiling problem with our SL examples solution and VS2010 Beta1)

Could you try to compile the examples that are contained in the manual installation zip file? When I tried to compile the same examples I did not encounter any issues.

Hello Terry,

I forgot to mention that the manual installation zip file can be found in our download section -> Rad Controls for Silverlight -> "Source Code, Automatic Installation, Manual Installation, Examples...". Once you click on the "Source Code, Automatic Installation, Manual Installation, Examples..." link you will be taken to a new page where you will find "Manual installation (zip, 95 MB)". The zip contains all files that come with the regular msi installation (including the C# and VB examples).

Hi:

 

I’m running XP Pro SP 3 and VS2008 Team System Database edition 9.0.30729.1 and .NET Framework 3.5 SP 1.

 

When I run the manual examples, VS2008 does not ask to convert to a newer version, so clearly the example code that comes with the regular download is older.  When I rebuild the manual downloaded sources, I only get one error:

Odd.  I did another rebuild all and the one error went away.  But the 2660 warnings remained.

I want to emphasize: with the examle site from the regular download, I am asked by VS2008 whether I want to convert the projects.  With the examples from the manual download I am not asked to convert.  Clearly the two sets of sources are not the same, so please test with the examples from the regular install.

Thanks,

Terry

Hi Terry,

You shouldn't worry about the warnings. Most of them are generated by some reason from a resource file - Artist.xml others are for obsolete properties. So we are aware of these warnings but they are nothing that you should be afraid of.
I am glad that finally you have managed to compile without errors. About the installation I checked it many times but everything seems to work ok and I don't get any errors. In my opinion the problem is because of something left over from a previous SL2 installation or old binaries. Or maybe something has left-over from binaries added from a Weekly build or something. I would advise you to uninstall and install again, but after the uninstall make sure there are no leftovers (delete Telerik folder manually). If it fails again clean the solution and Rebuild. Also please take a look at the versions/dates of the binaries for differences.

Kind regards,
Boyan

I'm getting the same error, any ideas?
I'm using VS 2008 and had issues with the previous example code because I had silverlight 3 installaed and now I'm getting this with new version of the examples.
Also, the references to System.Windows.RIA are missing from my machine, what is this exactly?
Doesn't seem to come with Silverlight 3.

[Terry]

Yes, I got a resolution, but it came in a separate email and i guess it didn't get posted:

I forgot to mention that the manual installation zip file can be found in our download section -> Rad Controls for Silverlight -> "Source Code, Automatic Installation, Manual Installation, Examples...". Once you click on the "Source Code, Automatic Installation, Manual Installation, Examples..." link you will be taken to a new page where you will find "Manual installation (zip, 95 MB)". The zip contains all files that come with the regular msi installation (including the C# and VB examples).

Just unzip this source over the other and it will compile, albeit with lots of warnings.

VS2008 does not ask to convert these sources, so clearly they are different than those distributed with the controls.

[Ruban]

Thanks will have a look.

[Ruban]

Still getting the same errors, even with the original msi installation it didn't ask me to convert the project.

[Terry]

Can you post some of the specific error messages?

One other thing I can suggest:  at some point way back I googled one of the error messages and found it was associated with .NET RIA services.  I did the following download and a few error messages went away:

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=76bb3a07-3846-4564-b0c3-27972bcaabce&displaylang=en

Sorry I didn't remember this sooner.  HTH.

[Ruban]

Thanks Terry, that's what I needed. Now it builds.
I assume it was missing the RIA references.

[Sajan Inc]

I get the same 6 errors.  I upgraded to the beta of q3 and still same issues. datagridvieweventargs issue is 1/2 of them.

[Milan]

Hi Sajan Inc,

Have you tried to install Ria Services? Terry Lindeman has posted the link to a download page where you can download ans install RIA Services.

All the best,

I didn't feel like installing RIA Services, so I just Unloaded the GridView.CS project and was able to get the solution to build.

[didit st]

Hi,

I have same problem, but after installing Ria Services, everything done, no error or warning found.

maybe you should try to install Ria Services.
