Question

I have the following code:

namespace ConectorV2
{
    [assembly:InternalsVisibleTo("Pruebas")]
    internal static class Utilidades
    {
        internal static string extraerCadenaDeConexion()
        {
            return extraerCadenaDeConexion(new XElement());
        }
        internal static string extraerCadenaDeConexion(XElement documento)
        {
            throw new NotImplementedException();
        }
    }
}

and then in the Pruebas project:

namespace Pruebas.ConectorV2.Cliente
{
    [TestFixture]
    class ModuloExtraerCadenaDeConexion
    {
        [Test]
        public void devuelveCadenaSolicitada()
        {
            var mock = new MockRepository();
            var appSettings =
                XElement.Parse(
                    @"<appSettings>
                                <setting key='dbtype' value='SQLSERVER' />
                                <setting key='SQLSERVER' value='prueba' />
                            </appSettings>");
            Assert.That(ConectorV2.Utilidades.extraerCadenaDeConexion(appSettings), Is.EqualTo("prueba"));
        }
    }
}

I get the following error on compile:

The type or namespace name ‘Utilidades’ does not exist in the namespace Pruebas.ConectorV2′ (are you missing an assembly reference?)

The assembly is correctly referenced in my pruebas project and I read on msdn that the default assembly name for a project is the project name… what am I missing?

Answer 1

You shouldn’t use assembly level attributes on classes! Just do so:

[assembly:InternalsVisibleTo("Pruebas")]
namespace ConectorV2
{
    internal static class Utilidades
    { /* ... */

it should work
