Commands: WACK binary analyzer fails when adding EF Core in UWP class library

[davesmits]

I am using Entity Framework core in my UWP. But since that wack fails with lot of errors but mainly because this:

File C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\SparkedApps.XpertFinder_2.1.46.0_x86__pkpvvn6f26pj6\coreclr.dll has failed the AppContainerCheck check.
◦File C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\SparkedApps.XpertFinder_2.1.46.0_x86__pkpvvn6f26pj6\dbgshim.dll has failed the AppContainerCheck check.

◦File C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\SparkedApps.XpertFinder_2.1.46.0_x86__pkpvvn6f26pj6\sqlite3.dll has failed the SafeSEHCheck check.

this blocks me to get the app in the store. As soon i remove the EF pacakges the errors are gone. Any known issues on this or know how to fix this?

@davesmits what version of EF Core are you using (RC1 or the nightly RC2 builds)?

[davesmits]

RC1. tried to get RC2 from myget but nuget refused to install that package

@rowanmiller

nuget error to include that package:
System.Reflection.Primitives 4.0.1-rc2-23931 provides a compile-time reference assembly for System.Reflection.Primitives on UAP,Version=v10.0, but there is no run-time assembly compatible with win10-arm.

or do i also have to use the updated .net core packages?

[davesmits]

i just updated everything to the rc2 version from myget (included .netcore) and now when building a release build it returns very quickly this error:

@davesmits yeah RC2 won't work with .NET Native until some new UWP is made public - the .NET Native team has some new work coming that helps solve a lot of the .NET Native issues that we had in RC1.

We've assigned this to someone to investigate since we haven't seen these particular failures before and want to make sure they won't carry over into future releases.

[natemcmaster]

Actually, this UWP tooling just released publically last week. It's a little hard to see, but you need to have .NET Native SDK 1.3.1 installed and use Microsoft.NetCore.UniversalWindowsPlatform 5.1.0. Also, make sure you are building with "Compile with .NET Native tool chain" enabled (on by default in "Release" mode.)

The release was announced here: https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/visualstudio/2016/04/11/whats-new-in-vs-2015-update-2-for-universal-windows-developers/

[davesmits]

i did this with the 1.3.1 release; before that release the number of generics EF core used let the compiler go out of memory. .net native feedback alias helped me to figure that out. If using .net core 5.1 EF RC2 doesnt want to install and with the RC1 having those errors as mentioned on top

[natemcmaster]

@davesmits can you share your project.json and project.lock.json?

[davesmits]

@natemcmaster when using .netcore 5.1 and rc 1?

[natemcmaster]

Ms.NetCore.Uwp 5.1 and RC2. These should work, which is why I'm asking. If they don't, then we need to re-open #4802

[davesmits]

which myget url i can best use? i am now using https://www.myget.org/F/aspnetcirelease/api/v3/index.json (changed it this evening) and the EF library is now 7.0.0.0-RC1-update1

[natemcmaster]

I'd recommend https://www.myget.org/F/aspnetrelease/api/v3/index.json. It's been through testing. https://github.com/aspnet/Home/wiki/NuGet-feeds

Here is my project.json
