Xamarin Forms won't build with MvvmCross (Android)

i have some trouble to build the android project with MvvmCross. Before i added MvvmCross the project build without problem. Note my windows phone project runs also without error.

But after i added MvvmCross (3.2.2) i got this error:

C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Xamarin\Android\Xamarin.Android.Common.targets(2,2): Error: Exception while loading assemblies: System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load assembly 'Cirrious.MvvmCross, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=e16445fd9b451819'. Perhaps it doesn't exist in the Mono for Android profile?
Dateiname: "Cirrious.MvvmCross.dll"
   bei Xamarin.Android.Tuner.DirectoryAssemblyResolver.Resolve(AssemblyNameReference reference, ReaderParameters parameters)
   bei Xamarin.Android.Tasks.ResolveAssemblies.AddAssemblyReferences(ICollection`1 assemblies, AssemblyDefinition assembly, Boolean topLevel)
   bei Xamarin.Android.Tasks.ResolveAssemblies.Execute() (smenso.SmartService.Mobile.Android)

I' currently using:

  • Xamarin Forms 1.2.3.6257
  • Xamarin Studio 5.5.4
  • MvvmCross 3.2.2

Thanks for help.

Solution

  • Thanks Stuart,

    after checking the differences of the solutions. I noticed that my project is missing the MvvmCross.HotTuna.MvvmCrossLibraries. This package is necessary for the Android project to build (so it seems). Even if it's not a dependency.

    After adding this package via nuget, the Android project builds and works.
