Esri.ArcGISRuntime.LocalServices nuget package for 100.3

RobertHaines

We are looking to upgrade to ArcGISRuntime 100.3 .NET however only an updated nuget package for Esri.ArcGISRuntime.WPF exists. The Esri.ArcGISRuntime.LocalServices package remains on version 100.2.1. The ArcGIS Runtime Local Server SDK via the web site, https://developers.arcgis.com/downloads/apis-and-sdks?product=local-server, is version 100.2.0.

If I just upgrade the Esri.ArcGISRuntime.WPF package to 100.3 an error occurs when the map is initialised as follows:

Could not load file or assembly 'Esri.ArcGISRuntime, Version=100.2.1.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=8fc3cc631e44ad86' or one of its dependencies. The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040)

I assume that I also require an updated nuget package for Esri.ArcGISRuntime.LocalServices which is not currently available?

Thanks,

Robert

Hi,

I would not expect to see the error above. 

#. Which Esri.ArcGISRuntime.* NuGet packages are you referencing? (e.g. Esri.ArcGISRuntime, Esri.ArcGISRuntime.WPF, and Esri.ArcGISRuntime.LocalServices)

#. How are you referencing the NuGet packages: packages.config or the newer `PackageReference` approach?

Occasionally we have run into issues adding/removing/updating NuGet packages from various projects. You may need to open the NuGet package manager dialog for your solution and uninstall the Esri.ArcGISRuntime.* packages then check your packages.config and .csproj files for any rogue imports or error conditions. After adding them back you should see something like this:

e.g. packages.config:

From our experience so far, the newer PackageReference approach appears to have helped resolve some of these occasional uninstall/install/update issues. 

e.g. .csproj using PackageReference (removes packages.config):

I hope this can help you resolve the referencing issue. But as you suggested, it will probably only be another couple/few weeks as we continue testing and readying the new Local Server SDK.
