SYMPTOMS
When compiling a Visual Basic project that accesses the Visual Studio Analyzer programming interfaces, the following error may occur:
CAUSE
The project contains references to both the automatable (Visual Basic and Visual J++) and non-automatable (Visual C++) interfaces.
RESOLUTION
Remove the references to the non-automatable interfaces from Project References.
MORE INFORMATION
To access the Visual Studio Analyzer programming interfaces from within Visual Basic, you need to add two type library references to your Visual Basic project. Once you add the type library references, you can access the methods within the programming interfaces using the Object Browser.
The following libraries are provided for use with Visual Basic:
- MSVSA Automatable Event Source Installer 1.0 Type Library
- MSVSA Automatable Inproc Event Creator 1.0 Type Library
The following libraries are provided for use with Visual C++ and should not be referenced in a Visual Basic project:
- MSVSA Event Source Installer 1.0 Type Library
- MSVSA Inproc Event Creator 1.0 Type Library
Steps to Reproduce Behavior
- Create a Visual Basic project of type ActiveX DLL.
- Add references for both the MSVSA Automatable Event Source Installer 1.0 Type Library and the MSVSA Event Source Installer 1.0 Type Library.
Declare an object as follows:
Dim mESI As MSVSAEventSourceInstaller- Save the project.
- Make the DLL.
NOTE: The same error occurs for all Visual Basic project types.
