Zxing.net.mobile: Not compatible with Xamarin.Forms 2.2.0.31

Created on 29 Apr 2016 · 10Comments · Source: Redth/ZXing.Net.Mobile

When upgrading to Xamarin.Forms 2.2.0.31, the Android-app will no build, after uninstalling ZXing.Net.Mobile.Forms the project compiles again.

When using Xamarin.Forms 2.1.0.6529, there is no problem compiling.

I am also having the same problem here, specifically in the file "Resource.designer.cs" generated during compilation.

Got the exact same issue. Not really a fan of component vendors relying on certain versions of Xamarin.Forms and/or Android versions, but not sure how else we can get around that at the moment...

Any ETA for an updated Nuget package?

Same problem. Many lines in the Resource.Designer.cs file are flagged ("Resource.Id does not contain a definition for 'art'").

Silence regarding this issue? This is a pretty serious blocking issue for anyone wanting to upgrade... I think I'll have to revert to building this myself if no updated nuget packages are released soon :(

Has anyone tried the beta that's on nuget? it should fix this. I will be updating a stable release soon, sorry folks, catching up from Evolve!

I just saw the open source Xamarin Evolve app by James is on Forms 2.3 with the beta of this library. Nice I'll give the beta a go and see if I can compile 👍🏼

I'm not Xamarin experienced user, so, I spend more than 20 hours without sleep to reach here. The warning and errors Windows focused out the output window, where has some help to resolve...

Well, finally I saw, I'm not alone!

No, I was, because I opened a Full Updated new Solution, instaled ZXing Stable and CRASHES like my Project.. and...

I uninstalled, Works fine again and..

S O L V E D 👍 👍 👍 INSTALED THE BETA VERSION, AND IS COMPATIBLE!

I can confirm that installing ZXing 2.1.0-beta1 resolves the problems with Xamarin.Forms 2.2.0.31
In order to install beta with VS NuGet package manager, you need to check "Include Prerelease" which makes beta available.
