Addin build error when using registration

[Nam Vũ]

Hi Excel-DNA team!

I have a problem using the subscription:
If I don't add <Reference Path="ExcelDna.Registration.dll" Pack="true" /> to the .dna file. The addin can build, but if I add it throws an error:
Severity Code Description Project File Line Suppression State
Error Could not load file or assembly 'System.Reflection.Metadata, Version=6.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.
Can anyone help me with this problem?

If you use the Registration extension, you need a line like that for the packed add-ins to work correctly.

 

Is this a problem for you?

Thanks for the feedback, this is exactly the bug I'm referring to. When adding a reference to the library, rebuilding the addin, that error will occur

And this is when I removed it from the .dna file. This dialog box appears, but the features of the Registration are still usable. This dialog box pops up whenever I open Excel

If you have an error when you remove it, then I suggest you don’t remove it from the .dna file.

I downloaded your project, and everything built and worked correctly on my machine.

Oh I see – you are also using ExcelDna.IntelliSense, and must pack this library too:

 

      <ExternalLibrary Path="97LabforExcel.dll" ExplicitExports="false" ExplicitRegistration="true" LoadFromBytes="true" Pack="true" IncludePdb="false" />

      <Reference Path="ExcelDna.Registration.dll" Pack="true" />

      <Reference Path="ExcelDna.IntelliSense.dll" Pack="true" />

I reinstalled VS and it ran. I think I have set up VS wrong somewhere so it can't build
