Thanks for reporting this one. I'll have a look at what's happening and will get back to you.

Thanks for taking a look at this! For now I've just explicitly declared the offending variables as 'dynamic' rather than implicit typing, as the NCrunch instrumentation is more valuable :)

Hi Alex,

I've been trying today to reproduce this issue so I can properly fix it, though it seems to have mysteriously disappeared for me.

I'm wondering if you have any other way to reproduce it in v1.33b? I've tried using the code you've described above and also through manipulating a few things in a checked out copy of Umbraco, and it always seems to build fine.

I'm starting to wonder if perhaps it was actually a symptom of another issue already fixed ...


Cheers,

Remco

Here you go. Stick this function in one assembly:

public static dynamic MyFunction()
{
return string.Empty;
}

Stick this in another assembly - 1.33b fails to build although VS builds it fine:

dynamic myObject = MyClass.MyFunction().Empty;

The NCrunch build error is:
[15:02:19.5423-BuildTask-42] ERROR (Compilation): Umbraco.Hive: ProviderGrouping\GroupedSessionExtensions.cs (88): 'object' does not contain a definition for 'Empty' and no extension method 'Empty' accepting a first argument of type 'object' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)



Changing that code to the following builds fine in both:

dynamic myObject = MyClass.MyFunction();
var blah = myObject.Empty;
