Where is the NuGet package for Microsoft.WindowsAzure.ServiceRuntime?

Question

We had previously been referring to our Windows Azure libraries via the SDK and I noticed that they have NuGet packages for them now . This is obviously way better, so I'm swapping out all of those references for the NuGet packages.

However, I can't find a NuGet package for Microsoft.WindowsAzure.ServiceRuntime.dll that contains classes such as RoleEnvironment , etc.

Are we supposed to be referencing this dll from the SDK installation and not a nuget package? That seems extremely odd. Am I just not seeing the package for this assembly?

I've now installed all of the "windowsazureofficial" tagged packages (just temporarily) and none of them seem to have the correct reference!

Answer 1

最新的Windows Azure SDK是1.7所以如果您需要更新Microsoft.WindowsAzure.ServiceRuntime，则必须在您的计算机中手动安装SDK并将这些引用添加到您的角色。

Answer 2

For anyone still battling, make sure you look under Assemblies > Extensions ;) This has now got me twice within 3 months!

Answer 3

I had a similar problem.

Option 1)

I added a dll libray in my Google Drive Storage: Microsoft.WindowsAzure.CloudDrive

In this case you should download and create a "static" link.

Option 2)

and I found a NuGet Package:

Azure SDK 2.2 DLLs

PM> Install-Package AzureSDK2.2DLLs

If you need more information, please contact me.

You need to install the particular version of the Azure SDK which you want to build with.

Actually you only need to install certain parts of it including the reference libraries(there are multiple parts of the SDK you can download separately) - and it depends which assemblies you are looking for.

eg for 2.2 or 2.3 SDK and Microsoft.WindowsAzure.ServiceRuntime or Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Diagnostics assemblies, you need the 'WindowsAzureAuthoringTools' MSI installer - not the 'WindowsAzureLibsForNet-x64' MSI, which installs some of the other reference libraries.

目前似乎没有一个，但我发现了这个： AnglicanGeek的非官方Windows Azure服务运行时1.6

Answer 6

它现在是NuGet上的常规包：

Install-Package Microsoft.WindowsAzure.SDK

Answer 7

List with all Azure Packages: Azure SDK for .NET

Note: Before downloading the SDK files, review the installation steps to understand the process and dependencies involved in installing the SDK. For SDK 1.7 and later releases, use the installation steps included with the Manual Installers links below. For SDK 1.6 and earlier, follow the installation steps listed later on this page.

您可以在路径中找到Microsoft.WindowsAzure.ServiceRuntime.dll ：

Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows Azure\.NET SDK\<sdk_version>\bin\runtimes\base

Answer 9

Its likely that they don't want to distribute the core parts of the SDK so you still have a requirement to install the actual SDK. I messaged (via nuget) the owners of the "windowsazureofficial" nuget packages and asked for feedback and I'll update this if I hear back.

As for upgrading, first get the sdk and then follow the upgrade instructions here . The references will automatically be updated and it will convert local references to nuget package references as well, when it can.
