Question

I inherited a small Microsoft Enterprise Library project that supposedly worked a couple of months ago. From what I can tell, it has code that was lifted directly from the Enterprise Library source (?!) instead of linking the built DLLs.

Sigh.

So, there are classes that don’t compile in the Microsoft.Practices.ENterpriseLibrary.* namespaces. There’s a reference to a cryptic LOGNS namespace which has a static LogHelper class with a bunch of Log* methods.

I can’t figure anything out about this class, other than that it’s missing (and trivial to stub out), but I’m concerned that I may be missing some references (in my GAC?) or something.

This is one trivial error out of several; I have a feeling this code did work (since it’s ten projects in a solution), and only that I’m missing something locally.

But what?

Answer 1

There’s no such namespace or class in Enterprise Library. Sounds like you didn’t get all the source code.

Well, no current versions – any idea what version of Entlib you’re dealing with?
