Hi,

I have created a simple datbase in SQL Server and used LLBLGen to generate CF.NET 3.5 adapter projects for it (for use with SQL Server CE in a desktop application). They compile fine. When I reference those in my application the following line produces a compile error:

DataAccessAdapter adapter = new DataAccessAdapter();

Error 1 The type 'SD.LLBLGen.Pro.ORMSupportClasses.DataAccessAdapterBase' is defined in an assembly that is not referenced. You must add a reference to assembly 'SD.LLBLGen.Pro.ORMSupportClasses.NET20, Version=2.6.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=ca73b74ba4e3ff27'.

I have those referenced which I thought would be enough: SD.LLBLGen.Pro.ORMSupportClasses.CF35 SD.LLBLGen.Pro.DQE.SqlServerCE.CF35

when I reference the mentioned SD.LLBLGen.Pro.ORMSupportClasses.NET20 I get the following compile time error:

The type 'SD.LLBLGen.Pro.ORMSupportClasses.IEntityCollection2' exists in both 'SD.LLBLGen.Pro.ORMSupportClasses.CF35.dll' and 'SD.LLBLGen.Pro.ORMSupportClasses.NET20.dll'

I'm a bit lost now - which assemblies should I be referenciong in my application to make it work?

Are you sure you did generate the cide for CF.NET 3.5?

Please re-generate the code and make sure you have selected CF.NET 3.5 in the platform combo box.

The namespace is the same, so the compile error is misleading. You should reference the CF35 build of the ORMSupportclasses dll.

Generated projects only reference:

SD.LLBLGen.Pro.ORMSupportClasses.CF35 SD.LLBLGen.Pro.DQE.SqlServerCE.CF35

I didn't touch any references there and CF.NET 3.5 was what I selected when generating code so I'm pretty much sure it is CF.NET 3.5.

Aside from the generated code, your application should also reference the SD.LLBLGen.Pro.ORMSupportClasses.CF35 dll.

I'm well aware of that - I'm referencing those CF35 assemblies in my app too. I have:

using SD.LLBLGen.Pro.ORMSupportClasses;

int the file I'm trying to use the adapter in and VS doesn't complain, I see those assemblies referenced in the References node in Solution Explorer.

Would you please attach a repro solution?

While preparing a solution for you I was able to diagnose the problem I had. Seems I had an LLBLGen generated project (regular .net not CF) referenced in addition to CF LLBLGen projects. Removing that reference seems to have fixed things. Thanks for your help guys, and sorry for the trouble.

Glad you have found it.

Good Luck.
