Aspose Email 21.1.0 messes up PresentationCore and other References

Aspose.Email Product Family
#1

Hello Aspose

We’re developing a project that references many Aspose components, including Aspose.Email

Our project targets .NET Framework 4.6.2

Our project also includes references to the following:
PresentationCore 4.0.0.0
PresentationFramework 4.0.0.0
ReachFramework 4.0.0.0

We like to keep our Aspose NuGet packages up to date so when I checked today I found that our Aspose package for Aspose Email could be updated from 20.12.0 to 21.1.0

When I updated those NuGet packages I found that the 3 references I mentioned above are changed and they now reference the 3.0.0.0 versions of these packages. What’s more, these target only an x86 architecture so when I try to rebuild the project targeting the 64-bit platform I get warnings about mismatches there, and to add to the problems the system appears to then no longer recognise references to standard controls such as System.Windows.Controls.Calendar causing the build to fail both in x86 as well as in x64 configurations

Obviously we cannot use Aspose.Email 21.1.0 as it currently stands and we had to revert back to using build 20.12.0

Can this please be corrected?

Many thanks

Can you please share the sample Visual Studio project along with snapshot of warning image so that we can try to reproduce and log that in our issue tracking system.

Hello @mudassir.fayyaz

I tried this in a sample project but the issue didn’t arise. The main solution in which this happens is too big too share - 42 projects. So the best I can do is show you what happens:

When I try to rebuild the project I get these warnings:

hello @mudassir.fayyaz

Just a quick note to say I retrieved the new 21.1 build from NuGet and, indeed, the issue is fixed.

Many thanks for this very quick turnaround.

We’ve upgraded Aspose.Email to version 21.3.0 in a ASP.net MVC 5 project.
It additionally added following references:

  • PresentationCore

  • PresentationFramework

  • ReachFramework

  • System.Management

  • System.Printing

  • System.Xaml

We don’t like to have those references in a web project. May you remove them again?
Thanks in advance.

@peterHoeber,
Our development team investigated the issue. Unfortunately, these references cannot be removed. They are necessary for the Aspose.Email functionality.
