Debugging Eto Forms in separate project

Hi - I am working on an EtoFroms UI for a Rhino plugin. I do the majority of debugging outside of Rhino to avoid the load times. I have a separate project set up that just displays the forms and references Rhino’s Eto and Eto Wpf dlls.
With SR19 I am getting the following error:
System.IO.FileNotFoundException: ‘Could not load file or assembly ‘Eto, Version=2.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=552281e97c755530’ or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.’
I am not quite sure what is causing this. Any help appreciated.

Hi @timkado,

Do you get this exception is you debug inside of Rhino?

Hi @timkado,

If I understand correctly, your building a standalone applicatiion (outside of Rhino) but your referencing Rhino’s Eto assemblies? If this is the case, then stop doing this. Rhino’s assemblies are unique to Rhino can cannot be used from outside applications. If you want to use Eto in a standalone application, then use version of Eto. If you don’t want to build the Eto assemblies yourself, then you can get them from NuGet.
