Problem Building Open-Xml-Sdk

[DavidDParticipant]

Following the Screen-Cast: Introduction to Open-Xml-PowerTools I got the SDK and PowerTools from Git. When I built the SDK in Visual Studio Community 2015 I got the following output:

1>—— Build started: Project: DocumentFormat.OpenXml, Configuration: Debug Any CPU ——
1> C:\Program Files\dotnet\dotnet.exe build “C:\Users\david\Documents\WindowsPowerShell\Modules\Open-XML-SDK\DocumentFormat.OpenXml” –configuration Debug –no-dependencies
1>

Project DocumentFormat.OpenXml (.NETFramework,Version=v4.5) will be compiled because expected outputs are missing

1> Compiling DocumentFormat.OpenXml for .NETFramework,Version=v4.5
1> Compilation succeeded.
1> 0 Warning(s)
1> 0 Error(s)
1> Time elapsed 00:00:16.5789434

2>—— Build started: Project: DocumentFormat.OpenXml.Tests, Configuration: Debug Any CPU ——
2> C:\Program Files\dotnet\dotnet.exe build “C:\Users\david\Documents\WindowsPowerShell\Modules\Open-XML-SDK\DocumentFormat.OpenXml.Tests” –configuration Debug –no-dependencies
2>

Project DocumentFormat.OpenXml.Tests (.NETFramework,Version=v4.5.1) will be compiled because expected outputs are missing

2> Compiling DocumentFormat.OpenXml.Tests for .NETFramework,Version=v4.5.1
2> Compilation succeeded.
2> 0 Warning(s)
2> 0 Error(s)
2> Time elapsed 00:00:07.6281830

========== Build: 2 succeeded, 0 failed, 0 up-to-date, 0 skipped ==========

I believe as a result of the underlined lines the DLL’s end up in …\bin\debug\net45. When I go to PowerShell and execute

import-module Open-Xml-PowerTools

the script cannot find …\bin\debug\DocumentFormat.OpenXml.dll presumably because it is in …\bin\debug\net45. In addition the script is unable to find …bin\debug\System.IO.Packaging.dll because this dll is nowhere to be found. The script is again expecting it to be in …\bin\debug but it is not there nor is it in …\bin\debug\net45.

I have solved the build problem. There is a step missing in the Screen-Cast: Introduction to Open-Xml-PowerTools. It is actually provided in the Screen-Cast: Open Xml Sdk Version 2.6 at
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B13IYHKhcc8

The secret is, after doing

$ git clone https://github.com/OfficeDev/Open-XML-SDK

you should execute

$ cd Open-XML-SDK
$ git checkout master
$ cd ..

This adds the missing projects (especially the crucial System.IO.Packaging) which makes everything else work.

This didn’t work for me. After doing the git checkout master, I’m getting this on DocumentFormat.OpenXml

Your project.json doesn’t list ‘win’ as a targeted runtime. You should add ‘”win”: { }’ inside your “runtimes” section in your project.json, and then re-run NuGet restore.

ANd this on DocumentFormat.OpenXml.Tests:

Your project is not referencing the “.NETFramework,Version=v4.5” framework. Add a reference to “.NETFramework,Version=v4.5” in the “frameworks” section of your project.json, and then re-run NuGet restore.

I finally got this to work by starting over with a fresh clone of the SDK. Everything is working as it should now.
