InitializeComponent MissingFieldException Field Not Found

Sam Boustani asked on Jul 23, 2020 6:24 AM

Using v20.1

I’m having a difficult issue when debugging. Before the debugger enters InitializeComponent(), an error is thrown. It never hits the breakpoint inside the InitializeComponent() method.

System.MissingFieldException: Field not found: ‘<TabControlName>’

I’m not sure why this is happening because the debugger never enters the method.

Are there any situations when this error would appear?

Hello Sam,

This error usually happens where there has been changes to a library, or a field get's references by two libraries, one of them get's updated and the other one is still looking for the information from the non-updated one.

Could you please provide more information in what scenario are you getting this exception? Maybe steps to reproduce it on our end so we can look for potential issues.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Sincerely,

  That was the issue. After rebuilding referencing libraries, it resolved itself.
