The following full body of code must be put in the editor for the exception to be thrown.


Option Strict Off
Option Explicit On

Imports System
Imports System.ComponentModel
Imports System.Windows.Forms
Imports System.Drawing

Partial Class NewItem
Inherits DevExpress.XtraEditors.XtraForm

Public Sub New()
MyBase.New()

'This call is required by the Windows Form Designer.
InitializeComponent()

'Add any initialization after the InitializeComponent() call

End Sub

'Form overrides dispose to clean up the component list.
<System.Diagnostics.DebuggerNonUserCode()> _
Protected Overrides Sub Dispose(ByVal disposing As Boolean)
If disposing AndAlso components IsNot Nothing Then
components.Dispose()
End If
MyBase.Dispose(disposing)
End Sub

'Required by the Windows Form Designer
Private components As System.ComponentModel.IContainer

'NOTE: The following procedure is required by the Windows Form Designer
'It can be modified using the Windows Form Designer.
'Do not modify it using the code editor.
<System.Diagnostics.DebuggerStepThrough()> _
Private Sub InitializeComponent()
components = New System.ComponentModel.Container
Me.Text = "NewItem"
End Sub
End Class


the exception is not thrown in your demo app only my app, any thoughts on what might be wrong with my implementation.

Thanks

It's difficult to say what could be happening without being able to debug it. First are you sure you have the latest maintenance release? Also, did you configure the cache and everything correctly like we do in the .NET reflection quickstart and as mentioned in the documentation?

If you ensure that the setup is correct, then please create a simple project that repros it and email it over so we can debug. Thanks!

so i figured it out when i only have some of the assemblies loaded via AddExternalReferenceForSystemAssembly

System.Windows.Forms
System
System.Drawing
DevExpress.Data.v7.2
DevExpress.Utils.v7.2
DevExpress.XtraEditors.v7.2
BCAM.CCE
BCAM.GeneralCore
BCAM.CCE.Data
BCAM.Module

and do the above it crashes
but when i load all of the assemblies referenced by my project it works fine

Unfortunately we really would need a tiny sample project that shows this happening so we can debug it. It's hard to say without seeing where it's breaking down in the code.
