MonoTouch - type load exception, updated program not registered in simulator



I've installed trial version of MonoTouch, and I'm evaluating it for use.





This strange error has occurred:







Could not load 'MyProductName' for registration. This could be due to an outdated assembly kept by the simulator, location: /PathToMyProduct







Followed by:







A type load exception has occurred.







My guess is that, somehow some assembly is not up to date. So I've tried to remove it from the given path. But still it's there. So I performed a purge (reinstalled MonoTouch, removed binary build path, in simulator path, uninstalled from simulator, reset simulator, and finally restarted the OSX). But still it's there.





Any hints on how to solve this peculiar problem?





regards, Kate

  1. That message covered most of the cases where such an exception occurred. This was fixed (actually we worked around the simulator bug) in MonoTouch 5.0+ (even earlier but I don't recall exactly which version). Simply resetting the simulator is enough to fix this condition.

    However this is unlikely the situation you're facing since you did a lot more than what would have been required.

    My guess would be that the project includes an assembly that refers to types that are not available in MonoTouch (e.g. from System.Reflection.Emit) or compiled against a different version of the framework (e.g. reusing an assembly binary compiled against .NET 4.0). However both cases do not generally lead to this error message so it could be something else.

    It will be hard to further diagnose the problem without having the binaries. Could you either open a bug report on http://bugzilla.xamarin.com (you can mark the attachment as private) or send an email to support@xamarin.com (with the project attached) ?

Why is this Javascript much *slower* than its jQuery equivalent?

I have a HTML list of about 500 items and a "filter" box above it. I started by using jQuery to filter the list when I typed a letter (timing code added later): $('#filter').keyup( function() { var jqStart = (new Date).getTime(); var search = $(this).val().toLowerCase(); var $list = $('ul.ablist > li'); $list.each( function() { if ( $(this).text().toLowerCase().indexOf(search) === -1 ) $(this).hide(); else $(this).show(); } ); console.log('Time: ' + ((new Date).getTime() - jqStart)); } ); However, there was a couple of seconds delay after typing each letter (particularly the first letter). So I thought it may be slightly quicker if I used plain Javascript (I read recently that jQuery's each function is particularly slow). Here's my JS equivalent: document.getElementById('filter').addEventListener( 'keyup', function () { var jsStart = (new Date).getTime()...

Is it possible to have IF statement in an Echo statement in PHP

Thanks in advance. I did look at the other questions/answers that were similar and didn't find exactly what I was looking for. I'm trying to do this, am I on the right path? echo " <div id='tabs-".$match."'> <textarea id='".$match."' name='".$match."'>". if ($COLUMN_NAME === $match) { echo $FIELD_WITH_COLUMN_NAME; } else { } ."</textarea> <script type='text/javascript'> CKEDITOR.replace( '".$match."' ); </script> </div>"; I am getting the following error message in the browser: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_IF Please let me know if this is the right way to go about nesting an IF statement inside an echo. Thank you.
