Hi,
I am creating an App to compare various alternative Xamarin.Forms charting components to overcome the UWP rendering issues I have seen in the current 3rd party component set I utilise. I have installed the Infragistics chart to my .Net Standard 2.0 Xamarin.Forms App and have it running fine on Android. However, when I come and try and debug on UWP, I receive the following unhandled exception.System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. ---> System.TypeInitializationException: The type initializer for 'Infragistics.XamarinForms.Controls.Charts.CategoryXAxis' threw an exception. ---> System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'Infragistics.XF.Platform.Charts, Version=20.1.20201.35, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null'. The system cannot find the file specified. at Infragistics.XamarinForms.Controls.Charts.CategorCould you point me in the right direction as to how to solve this as I cannot seem to be able to overcome the issue and render the chart in UWP. Maybe I am missing a reference etc.Any help much appreciated. I can send the application in a dropbox link if the above does not help route cause.
Best Regards,
Matt Finch
Hello Matthew,
The Infragistics for Xamarin toolset currently only supports the Android and iOS platforms – it was unfortunately never extended to work with Xamarin.UWP. As such, we do not support UWP with the Infragistics for Xamarin toolset.
We do have a UWP-preview product, but it is rather doubtful that this will work in a Xamarin environment. You can read about the UWP product here: https://es.infragistics.com/products/uwp.
Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns on this matter.
