Namespace Aliasing

[Brian Chavez]

Hi there,

By default, System.IO namespace is added to every script.

Problem is I have an assembly that defines Fluent.IO.Path that conflicts with System.IO.Path.

So, I'd need to write something like this:

using Path=Fluent.IO.Path;

However, when I try to run my script, I get the following error:

"error CS0246: The type or namespace name 'Path' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)"

Any help would be great.

Running scriptcs in debug mode, I can confirm the assembly is being found and loaded.

Thank you,

Brian

Hi

This is a bug in the Roslyn Engine. The fix is fairly simple, I’ll push it this weekend. Could you open an issue on github for tracking purposes?

In the meantime, you can use the mono engine as a workaround:
scriptcs myscript.csx -modules mono

It is not affected by the bug.

cheers
