Hi,

I did a Library which use NetFwTypeLib to setup Windows Firewall. It works successfully for month.

I just upgrade the solution included this Library from Visual Studio 2015 to Visual Studio 2017. 

Now, I cannot no more compile without warning and errors. The library raises warning:

At least one of the arguments for 'NETCONLib.INetConnection.GetProperties' cannot be marshaled by the runtime marshaler.  Such arguments will therefore be passed as a pointer and may require unsafe code to manipulate.

and all projects using this Library no more found the library's reference this error:

Impossible to resolve primary reference "...dll", because it had an indirect dependancy on assembly mscorlib , Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089 which version is greater than vers ion 2.0.0.0 of the actual Framework

The error only raises on debug mode, into release mode only the warning raises:

thanx for you help

    Some news: when i launch the app, a error raises when trying to access the NetFwTypeLib:

    Impossible to load file or assembly ''CustomMarshalers, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a' or one of its dependencies. File not found.

    All my projects are set to compile in Framework 2.0, i don't understand why it try to load a 4.0 assembly ?!?

    Solution works well when compiling with VS2015 :(
