Can not specify /main if building module or library (CS2017)

Ashwin Kumar · Post by **Ashwin Kumar** » Tue Jan 27, 2015 11:31 am

Hi,
I have created 2 projects in the solution and both projects I set to .dll in the Properties window. When I build the solution, I am getting error "Can not specify /main if building module or library (CS2017) ’

Ranorex version : 5.2
.net version : 4.0

Operation System:
Windows 7 SP1 (64 Bit)

Thanks,
Ashwin Kumar

Hello Ashwin,

Please ensure that no "StartupObject" is set within your project if your output type is set to "Class Library".

Open your *.csproj file with a text editor and delete the entry within the <StartupObject></StartupObject>-Tag.

Hi Robert,
As you mentioned in the below and I perfomed similar steps

Open your *.csproj file with a text editor and delete the entry within the <StartupObject></StartupObject>-Tag when output type is set to "Class Library".

But while building the solution I am getting UTIL 10 errors like "The type or Namespace name 'Util' could not be found (CS0246)"

Thanks,
Ashwin Kumar

Hi Ashwin Kumar,

This seems to be another issue. Please check in your class file if the using directive "using Util;" is available.
Usually this message means that this is missing.

Bernhard
