Win10 msbuild：加载程序集失败

Question

I am facing a assembly-not-found build problem on Win10 x64, using msbuild command line utility v14, targeting x86:

msbuild dummy.csproj /t:Rebuild /p:Configuration=Release;AppxBundle=Always;Platform=x86

The strange thing, is that, it seems to fail only on Win10 x64, not also on Win10 x86. I do not exclude although configuration differences.

And the error is:

Extracting .ResW files from assembly "C:\\Users\\abart.nuget\\packages\\Microsoft.CSharp\\4.0.0\\lib\\netcore50\\Microsoft.CSharp.dll" into "obj\\x86\\Release\\".

C:\\Program Files (x86)\\MSBuild\\Microsoft\\VisualStudio\\v14.0\\AppxPackage\\Microsoft.AppXPackage.Targets(1047,5): error MSB3816: Loading assembly "C:\\Users\\abart.nuget\\packages\\Microsoft.NETCore.Portable.Compatibility\\1.0.0\\runtimes\\aot\\lib\\netcore50\\mscorlib.dll" failed.

The mscorlib.dll file does exist.

Any ideas why is this happening?

Answer 1

您可能需要使用x64 msbuild的完整路径，如下所示：

"c:\Program File(x86)\MSBUILD\14.0\bin\amd64\msbuild.exe"

Answer 2

I can't confirm this is the answer for above, but I had/have very similar build problem for my Windows universal app.

Internal compiler error: MCG0024:UnresolvableTypeReference Unresolvable type reference 'System.ICloneable' in 'Assembly(Name=System.Private.CoreLib, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a)' found. Please check the references in your build system. A reference is either missing or an assembly is missing an expected type.

The problem seems to crop up after some Visual Studio update or perhaps a Nuget update. I found the link referenced below and experimented by changing the property build settings for the problematic project and disabling the compile with.net native toolchain parameter.

I don't think this is the intended behavior or the long-term solution but it did get me back to being able to build and test code.

If someone else has an idea about how or why this problem is happening in the correct way to fix it in the long term please post back here. And thanks.
