How to update a library in AX?

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by RadekM 172

I do have a problem that a method I need is in higher verion of MS library.

Microsoft.Extensions.Logging.Abstraction that library is v1.1.2 

I did add a reference in my project to v5.0.0 and even other but none of them seems to work. It always points out that the method is missing and it is missing since it was added in v2.0 so it looks like it always prioritize the DLL from webroot on my machine instead of the referenced one. 

So the question is can I update this library myself on my dev and later on PROD? Or there is any change to make the referenced one to work?

    Hi Radek,

    Is your question related to Dynamics 365? If so, Microsoft has dependency on specific versions of dlls. It is not possible to update the library yourself. At least not for cloud hosted environments. If you would change the dll version used on a on-prem environment there might be a risk that particular features will stop working.

    Indeed, it takes the version from Microsoft as there can be only one version active per dll.

    Usually, some newer versions are considered during the 2 main updates in April and October. You can create a support request and check if there are plans to update the version of the library.

    Yes, I'm asking about D365 FO Onprem. It just hits me that this library is running from webroot when I debugged it. When I tried to change the dll there I couldn't log into AX anymore on my DEV.

    Where can I make this support request?

    You can contact Microsoft Support for a support request.
