XAML Converter Exception

[cls71]

Hello,

If I declare a type in the Page's Resources section of the XAML (for example to use a Converter), I get an exception when the Add-On is loaded.

For the demonstration of the error I will use an Add-On written by you. I highlight the new lines of code in yellow.

In this example I use a Converter whose purpose is to convert a BarsPeriod to String. The steps to follow are:

1.- In the AddOnFramework.cs add the class.



2.- In the AddOnFramework.xaml declare the resource. Although initially intellisense recognizes the namespace and finds the type, then it shows the error that appears.





3.- When the Add-On is compiled and then executed, an exception occurs (in this example the Add-On is empty and the exception is raised when the Add-On is closed).
Note that I do not even use the converter, I only declare it.

This procedure works correctly in standard WPF applications, and I do not understand why the error is due.

Thanks.

Hello cls71,

Thanks for your post.

EDIT:

The basic AddOnFramework example will load XAML files but, these aren't compiled and linked with code. We can use the more complex Visual Studio Advanced example to link in the XAML with the code-behind. I've attached an example that does not show this issue.

Please let us know if we can be of further assistance.
