Dexterity Compile

Posted on by CindyFromIndy 32

I'm updating some Dexterity Tweaks from GP 2015 to GP 18.4.  It's been a while since I've done a Dex update.

Before using the Source Control to Update my custom resources into the fresh 18.4 dictionary, I copied the following DLLs from my GP folder to my Dexterity folder:

Microsoft.Dynamics.GP.BusinessIntelligence.Homepage.dll

Microsoft.Dynamics.GP.BusinessIntelligence.Homepage.Framework.dll

Microsoft.Dynamics.GP.BusinessObjects.dll

Microsoft.Dynamics.GP.ManagementReporterServices.dll

Microsoft.Dynamics.GP.Svc.Application.dll

However, when I compiled, I am still getting the following Errors multiple times:

Error loading assembly: Microsoft.Dynamics.GP.ManagementReporterServices, version 14.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken

Error loading assembly: Microsoft.Dynamics.GP.BusinessObjects, version 1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken

I'm at a loss on this one.  Any suggestions?

    Thanks Cindy.

    Glad to help.

    The Summary section was added that article this week as I am currently running a remote Dexterity Training class and wanted to make the article clearer for my students without them having to read though all the errors and solutions.

    Regards

    So sorry - apparently I was so tunnel-visioned on what to copy that I wasn't paying attention on where to copy it.  

    The summary section clarified enough even for me and I finally got everything to behave.

    Thanks bunches David!  Dexterity Development would be lost without you!

    Hi Cindy

    I actually updated the DLL article yesterday with more information and a handy dandy Summary section as well as scaling issue info:

    https://winthropdc.wordpress.com/2015/07/24/developing-using-dexterity-for-microsoft-dynamics-gp-2015/

    You will notice that 4 DLLs need to be copied to Dexterity Application folder and 3 DLLs including the ones you are having trouble with must be copied to the folder where you Dexterity Development Dictionary is located.

    I think it is these 3 DLLs which need to be moved to fix your problem.

    Regards

    David

    RE: Dexterity Compile

    Thanks for both the blog and reminisce down memory lane with D&D, David!  :)

    Your blog was great, David.  I referenced it quite a bit.  The challenge is that I copied the DLLs from the GP to the Dexterity folder, and 2 of the errors still persist.

    Is there any way to get around the errors?  Should I try bringing in the DLLs from an earlier version?

    In response to the spam about Elden Ring that I have reported ....

    Dexterity as a statistic in Role Playing games goes back to the pencil and paper games such as Gary Gygax and TSR's Dungeons and Dragons.

    However, in this case it is the name of the programming language developed by Great Plains Software in the late 1980s to create their Dynamics ERP software.

    Dexterity is an important Elden Ring stat that typically ties to faster weapons like katanas, spears, and halberds. Though this weapon category is sometimes overlooked, dex armaments can be devastating thanks to their speed and lightweight mobility.Wyndham Rewards

    Hi Derek!

    I copy the 5 listed DLLs in my first attempt (sorry - my Cut & Paste above was spacing challenged).  These are the only 2 DLLs where the copy didn't work.

    I also copied GPDWIN32.DLL  and GPIcons.dll.

    I also searched for the Dexterity manuals.  The most recent I found were from GP 2013.  Are those the most current?

    RE: Dexterity Compile

    I found a similar forum question here:

    community.dynamics.com/.../compile-warning-in-dexterity---error-loading-assembly-microsoft-dynamics-gp-svc-application

    In it, it mentions to copy the three libraries that Dexterity is looking for, from your GP2015 folder to your Dex 14.0 folder.  In that forum, they had upgraded to GP 2015, so I'm thinking if you upgraded to 18.4, copy them from your GP 18.4 folder to your Dex 18.x folder?

    Even this seems to suggest the same type of process:

    community.dynamics.com/.../gp-2015-dag-error-could-not-load-type-microsoft-dynamics-gp-businessobjects-payroll-timecard

    Thanks
