ERROR: The type or namespace name 'DeployLX' could not be found
When compiling a project recently protected with DeployLX you may receive the following error.
Cause
The DeployLX Licensing runtime requires the full .NET framework profile and the protected project targets the client profile. Following the error, you might also receive the following warning.
warning MSB3268: The primary reference "DeployLX.Licensing.v5.dll" could not be resolved because it has an indirect dependency on the framework assembly "System.Web, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a" which could not be resolved in the currently targeted framework. ".NETFramework,Version=v3.5,Profile=Client". To resolve this problem, either remove the reference "DeployLX.Licensing.v5.dll" or retarget your application to a framework version which contains "System.Web, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a".
The warning basically states that you need to change your protected assembly to use the full .NET framework profile.
Solution
The solution is to change your projects settings so that you target the full .NET framework.
To target the full .NET Framework profile
- Select Project | Properties...
- Select the Compile tab.
- Scroll to the bottom and select Advanced Compile Options...
- Change the Target framework to .NET Framework 3.5 or later.

DeployLX 5.x
