Ranorex Forum

Hello,

I have .Net version 3.5 SP1 installed and Ranorex version 2.2.1.7599.

I added the system.data.linq reference to references, and added the following using statements to my source file:

using System.Data;
using System.Data.Linq;
using System.Data.Linq.Mapping;

When I build the project I receive several errors:

Could not resolve assembly System.Data.Linq. The target framework required by this assembly (3.5) is higher than the project target framework. If this reference is required by your code, you may get compilation errors. (MSB3251)

The type or namespace name 'Linq' does not exist in the namespace 'System.Data' (are you missing an assembly reference?) (CS0234) - C:\QA\RanorexAutomation\Gen2\SourceExtract\SourceExtract\Filter.cs:15,19

The type or namespace name 'Linq' does not exist in the namespace 'System.Data' (are you missing an assembly reference?) (CS0234) - C:\QA\RanorexAutomation\Gen2\SourceExtract\SourceExtract\Filter.cs:16,19

The last two errors are referencing the last two using statements.

How do I go about supporting use of Linq in my project?

Thanks,

Jason

Did you add references for those namespaces, e.g. a reference to the .NET Framework DLL System.Core? If not, please add the required references.

And if you want to use .NET Framework 3.5 features, change the "Target Framework" in the project settings -> Compiling tab to the desired framework version (see screenshot below).

I only had System. After the changes, the project compiles just fine. Thank you.

Hi Alex,

Thanx

Hi,

It seems that you are referencing to assemblies/projects which are build with another .Net version.
Therefore please check if all used assemblies/projects are built with the .Net 3.5 framework.
Please take also a look at the following links:
link1
link2

Is any doc or userguide for the options that are available in project > project options , i can barely understand these features or

Unfortunately not because these options are not Ranorex specific ones, these are standard project settings.
Do you have a specific question about a specific option?

My project built on .NEt 2.0, how will i change from 2.0 to 3.5 and compile it, when i changed to 3.5 i got build error

Hi,

please provide us the error you got during build process by setting the target framework to 3.5.
Without having any further information about the error you are running into, it's not possible to help you solving your issues.

Hi,
