Hello,

I hope I posted in the correct forum...

I'm in the progress of migrating our WPF from .Net 4.7.2 to .Net Core 6
I run into issues with our test projects that reference WPF and use Microsoft Fakes
Please see my demo repo here:

https://github.com/RoyRosenberg/msFakesWPF

Basically, the problem can be described like the following:

  • Class Library project with <UseWPF>true</UseWPF>
  • The project contains ControlDemo class that inherits from UserControl class
  • MSTest project with reference to the class library project
  • I added fakes assembly to the class lib. project

When trying to compile, I got the following error

Error CS7069 Reference to type 'DependencyObject' claims it is defined in 'WindowsBase', but it could not be found

The error is duplicated 20 times, so I got 20 errors in the error list window:

Please help me find out the problem
Thanks in advance,
Roy

    Hi LP,
    The issue is fixed in the latest version of VS (17.4 I guess).
