System.Data.DataSetExtensions

[mvallevand]

Sorry C# noob question

I've been talking with Ubu and playing around with his source in the hope I might be able to support it a little. Currently I am trying to compile UbuStream for .NET 2.0 using VS 2008 but because of the reference to System.Data.DataSetExtensions I am being told that 3.5 is necessary and MSDN seems to agree http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb358258.aspx

Any thoughts?

At least UbuRadio is fine so I can have UbuRadio and Web Radio plugins together.

Take a look at this post.

You just need to point it to the new DLL. I think if you make sure under references, it is set to Specific Version = False, users of your program will work with the 2.0 version as well as the 3.5 version.

I do have it set false but when I tell it to target 2.0 I get this:

Code:

Error    1    The type or namespace name 'TypedTableBase' does not exist in the namespace 'System.Data' (are you missing an assembly reference?) ...

I assume most people don't have 3.5

After a bit more research, it may not be as simple as referencing the 3.5 version of that DLL. Apparently, it references some of the 3.5 core functions and may not work correctly under a project targeted for 2.0.

That said, you could try to force it by manually adding the DLL to the list (Add Reference, then browse to C:\Program Files\Reference Assemblies\Microsoft\Framework and add System.Data.DataSetExtensions.dll. But again, not sure if this will work or not.

I guess it turns out to be a conversion issue and it has to be manually fixed to revert since the import changes code as follows

Code:

public partial class ChannelsDataTable : System.Data.DataTable, System.Collections.IEnumerable {

public partial class ChannelsDataTable : global::System.Data.TypedTableBase<ChannelsRow> {

Thanks for the help, this might have to be a 3.5 project.
