BizTalk external assembly namespace and static methods
- by SteveC
Is there some restriction in BizTalk 2006 R2 to accessing static methods in external assemblies when the assembly has a "." in the name ?
I have the solution set-up with the BizTalk project "FooBar", and the external assembly project "FooBar.Helper" (strongly signed and GAC'ed) with a class "Demo" (public and serializable), which is referenced in the BizTalk project
I can create a BizTalk variable of type "FooBar.Helper.Demo" and access an instance method fine, but an expression window the Intellisense shows the FooBar namespace, but if I dot it, I get the error "illegal dotted name" ???
However I can add another project, "ExtComp" with class "Test" and it's static methods are displayed in Intellisense !!!
The only difference I can see is the first external assembly has the dot in it
