Installed 2.5.20. I can now build, but I can no longer open a designer, and the auto-updater still shows the old expired key (not surprising, since nothing’s prompted me to enter the new key). The nuget manager in VS2019 is now happy with the WiseJ local nuget repository.
Trying to launch a designer results in:
Unable to cast object of type ‘Wisej.Web.Page’ to type ‘Wisej.Core.IWisejControl’.
A full rebuild did not change anything. This solution builds and works perfectly on my other computer..
Ah ha! The WiseJ designer is popping up a dialog BEHIND Visual Studio complaining about the old expired 1.5.4 trial license – but it doesn’t give me any option to enter the new, valid key….
Hey Carl, if you can just re-build the app you’re trying to use and then close/re-open VS, that should fix the Designer issue. After that when you have the designer opened, you can find a little “Lock” icon on the bottom right corner of the designer (next to the Edge icon), from there you can simply deactivate the old license and you can enter your new valid key.
Ah, and behind that dialog was yet another dialog that allowed me to enter the new key. All is resolved now. Would be nice if those dialogs were forced to the top. Topmost dialogs are generally annoying, but in this case, it might be justififed!
That dialog was created using designer surface as the owner causing it be in front of it, but it looks like it’s not working like that anymore. Will change it to TopMost.
