I support this. Realm is now no longer compatible with latest version of some packages such ReactiveUI, which now has a dependency on Fody >= 6.0

Every time that I update Fody in VS for Mac, I should to reinstall Realm again, always happen

[thinkaboutcsharp]

I caught error "Fody: Failed to execute weaver". Is this caused by this issue?

Fody: Failed to execute weaver C:\Users\SETUP.nuget\packagesrealm.fody\4.1.0\build..\weaver\net46\Realm.Fody.dll due to a MissingMemberException. Message: メソッドが見つかりません: 'Mono.Collections.Generic.Collection`1 Mono.Cecil.GenericParameter.get_Constraints()'. This is likely due to the weaver referencing an old version (4) of Fody.

It is, you need to downgrade your Fody version to 5.x.

[salgiza]

We can add PropertyChanged.Fody (3.1.x) to the list of nuget packages that are now incompatible with Realm due to this.

[HobDev]

This is a frequent issue. Why can't realm push a patch with every update in it's dependencies? Is this a big deal

[nirinchev]

We have more important issues in the backlog that we'd like to address first. We'll get to upgrading it eventually.

I am getting same error please check
Severity Code Description Project File Line Suppression State Error Fody: Failed to execute weaver C:\Users\...\.nuget\packages\realm.fody\4.1.0\build\..\weaver\net46\Realm.Fody.dll due to a MissingMemberException. Message: Method not found: 'Mono.Collections.Generic.Collection1 Mono.Cecil.GenericParameter.get_Constraints()'.. This is likely due to the weaver referencing an old version (4) of Fody. 1

Now the problem fody is comes with Realm itself so I can't downgrade only fody it's dependency of Realm.

Please help me to fix this.
Note : I can downgrade Realm itself but this is not right solution for me I have to do many thing in my code there are certain things I have updated with this

[nirinchev]

Why can't you downgrade Fody?

[thinkaboutcsharp]

In my case, I got PropertyChanged.Fody from nuget, its Fody was ver.6, so they were conflicted.
I want to use Realm database for xamarin, I gave up PropertyChanged.Fody.

[salgiza]

@thinkaboutcsharp Until this ticket is fixed, instead of installing the last version of PropertyChanged.Fody (3.1.1) install de nugget package for version 3.0.1 ( https://www.nuget.org/packages/PropertyChanged.Fody/3.0.1 ), which is compatible with the current version of Realm.

@jitendrajadav you're referencing [email protected] which is why the Fody dependency is resolved as 6.0.0. As @salgiza mentioned, you can downgrade to [email protected] to be compatible with Fody 4/5.x.
