Hi,
I have a WPF application that is using infragistics.
It works fine on the developers machine since it has infragistics installed on our machines.
However, while trying to build the application on a machine that does not have infragistics installed on it. The build fails with the below error.
Unknown build error, 'Cannot resolve dependency to assembly 'InfragisticsWPF4.v11.1, Version=11.1.20111.1002, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=7dd5c3163f2cd0cb' because it has not been preloaded. When using the ReflectionOnly APIs, dependent assemblies must be pre-loaded or loaded on demand through the ReflectionOnlyAssemblyResolve event.
The application just uses XamComboEditor in its WPF form and has infragistics referenced in the page as follows:
xmlns:igEditors="clr-namespace:Infragistics.Windows.Editors;assembly=InfragisticsWPF4.Editors.v11.1"
The project containing the form has reference to "InfragisticsWPF4.v11.1.dll" added from a commonlib folder not GAC.
The common lib folder also has reference to the below files:
Infragistics.Windows.Extensions.dll
InfragisticsWPF4.Controls.Editors.XamCalendar.v11.1.dll
InfragisticsWPF4.Controls.Schedules.v11.1.dll
InfragisticsWPF4.DataManager.v11.1.dll
InfragisticsWPF4.DataPresenter.ExcelExporter.v11.1.dll
InfragisticsWPF4.DataPresenter.v11.1.dll
InfragisticsWPF4.DockManager.v11.1.dll
InfragisticsWPF4.Editors.v11.1.dll
InfragisticsWPF4.Ribbon.v11.1.dll
InfragisticsWPF4.v11.1.dll
Not sure why the project does not build and also not able . Please help....
Hello Manesh,
In order to run an application that has dependencies on 3rd party assemblies on a machine that does not have those 3rd party assemblies installed, the assemblies need to be copied to the same location where the executable is. The assemblies need to reside next to the exe. Or they need to be in the GAC. If they are not located in these places, the application will not automatically find them.
From your description, it sounds like your Visual Studio project references the assemblies from a folder. The easiest thing to do would be to select all of the Infragistics assemblies from inside Visual Studio and change the "Copy Local" property to True. This will copy the Infragistics assemblies to the project output directory, right where the executable is.
Let me know if you have any further questions on this matter.
Hi Rob,
I tried using the approach suggested by you.
ie., "The easiest thing to do would be to select all of the Infragistics assemblies from inside Visual Studio and change the "Copy Local" property to True."
However, I still have the same issue and the solution does not build.
I think I got confused about what you were asking. Ok, if you don't have Infragistics installed and the assemblies are not located in the project's bin folder but in some commonlib folder, then you need to setup a reference path to that folder in order to build.

We have added the project references correctly. However, We are still facing this issue.
I would request you to please read the original question posted by me to understand the issue in details.
You provided a list of what Infragistics assemblies you have inside your commonlib folder but can you tell me what assemblies your project is actually referencing? What Infragistics assemblies do you have listed under the "References" item in Solution Explorer?
Are all of the Infragistics assemblies of the same version? I don't just mean if they are all 11.1. I mean the full version number. Your error lists the version that it's looking for (11.1.20111.1002). Are all of your Infragistics assemblies of this version?
Do you still require assistance on this matter?
