Resolving Type mismatch, HOW

Hi

I starting to get the following compiler error, but I really don't know how
to resolve it.


Value of type 'DXP.Shared.myPath' cannot be converted to
'DXP.Shared.myPath'. Type mismatch could be due to the mixing of a file
reference with a project reference to assembly 'DXP.Shared'. Try replacing
the file reference to 'DXP.Shared.dll' in project '2_App_Code' with a
project reference to 'DXP.Shared'

Both the caller and called method resides in the same project, so how can
part of the project have 'DXP.Shared.dll' as a project reference and another
part of the project have it as a file reference???

I don't get it...any help would be greatly appreciated.....

TIA

Søren

You haven't duplicated the code for the myPath type in your project
have you? Or does your solution have more than one project in which
you have duplicated the code? Can you show us the code that produces
this error.
 
Hi

It's a rather large project, so it's kind of difficult to show the code.
I've tried to reproduce the problem in a smaller project, but it seems to
have something to do with the complexity of the project.
What I basically have is a Web project with a number of usercontrols. These
usercontrols takes an argument (property) which is of type
'DXP.Shared.myPath' some of these assignments give the type mismatch error
some don't, but I haven't been able to figure out the pattern. I do have a
feeling though, that it is because of the new dll structure (that each
folder is compiled into a .dll) that causes the problem, maybe the compiler
can't figure out that it's the same type or something like that.....

Regards,

Søren
