New Shell Package Not Compiling

[czentman]

I'm creating a new shell integration package and so far all I did was created it and name in VS10 C# and it pulled in all the correct dll's and I tried to compile and get the following error.

The command ""C:\Program Files (x86)\SoftPro\Select SDK\Tools\spregpkg.exe" /mode:register /rootsuffix:Exp /p:"bin\Debug\ClientPhonebook.dll"" exited with code -1.

Make sure the project is configured to use the full .ne framework, not the client profile.

Also, are there other build errors in the output logs?

[czentman]

the target framework is .net 4, not client profile. Where are the output logs?

[John Morris]

The visual studio output window.

[czentman]

There was nothing else in that output window.

I also tried now taking the example that came with the Select SDK. I started with the one "EditableLookupTablePackage". I can't find the dll's that the project is looking for -
using SoftPro.OrderTracking.Server.Lookups; and using SoftPro.Select.Common;. These 2 dll's were not in the SoftPro\Select or Select SDK folder. I changed the using to SoftPro.Select and that seems to work but the other one I don't have - only SoftPro.OrderTracking.Client and SoftPro.OrderTracking.Activities and SoftPro.OrderTracking.Controls so I included those 3 but didn't help for this one. I got the project to compile with commenting this one out. It looks good, the ribbon appears, and everything works until I tried to save, on line 203 of LookupEditor.cs "lookups.ApplyChanges(_lookupData);", I get a Validation ExceptionThe filter field column name must begin with "Filter: " on SoftPro.ClientModel.ValidationException. Stack Trace is the following:

Please advice. Thanks

The SDK sample sounds outdated.

Can you post the complete build output from your failed package build (not the sample)?

[czentman]

I'm getting this still/again.

I looks like you're using a network drive. Does this reproduce if you use a local drive path?

[czentman]

It did seem to compile on a local drive so thanks.

[czentman]

This was the reason and everyone works locally but how can I do this on a network drive? I do sometimes like to work on a network drive.
