Cannot load System.Threading.Tasks assembly, using Google Calendar API

SOLVED !

Huge thank to Sam Leach

Here is a sample of my working app.config file:

<configuration>
       ...
    <runtime>
        <assemblyBinding xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1">
            <dependentAssembly>
                <assemblyIdentity name="System.Threading.Tasks" publicKeyToken="B03F5F7F11D50A3A" culture="neutral"/>
                <bindingRedirect oldVersion="0.0.0.0-2.5.19.0" newVersion="2.5.19.0"/>
            </dependentAssembly>
            <dependentAssembly>
                <assemblyIdentity name="System.Net.Http" publicKeyToken="B03F5F7F11D50A3A" culture="neutral"/>
                <bindingRedirect oldVersion="0.0.0.0-2.1.10.0" newVersion="2.1.10.0"/>
            </dependentAssembly>
            <dependentAssembly>
                <assemblyIdentity name="System.Net.Http.Primitives" publicKeyToken="B03F5F7F11D50A3A" culture="neutral"/>
                <bindingRedirect oldVersion="0.0.0.0-2.1.10.0" newVersion="2.1.10.0"/>
            </dependentAssembly>
        </assemblyBinding>
    </runtime>
</configuration>

I have also found that source


EDIT: The original question is below the line.

I am using the .NET 4.0 Framework and from my research I know that the System.Threading.Tasks assembly is no longer needed (because it's included automatically). Am I wrong about this?

If I am right, I am now pretty sure that the error is raised because the version of System.Threading.Tasks used by the developers of the google-api-dotnet-client and the one used by Visual Studio 2010 are different.

I noticed that when inspecting the behavior of my app when I remove some lines.

And these lines came out:

gcal = new CalendarService(new BaseClientService.Initializer()
{
    Authenticator = auth,
    ApplicationName = APP_NAME,
});

So, my new question is:

Is there a way to force the usage of one specific version of a reference assembly in VS2010 ?

Thank you for helping me, I am sure it will help lots of people because the google-calendar-api-v3 is badly documented.

Kind regards, Bruno.


My problem is that I can't get access to the Google API as a service through VisualStudio.

I get this error:

        var privateKey = certificate.Export(X509ContentType.Cert);

        return JsonWebToken.Encode(payload, privateKey, JwtHashAlgorithm.RS256);
    }
}

I don't understand why I have a FileLoadException on the System.Threading.Tasks assembly. I try to add a new functionality to an application which already use Tasks without problems. This app uses TabPage objects which run in different threads.

Remove all references to System.Threading.Tasks and then add in the one from whatever .NET version you are using (.NET 4.0).

The Google Calendar API might be using a different version of .NET

Manually Redirecting Assembly

You can specify which version of the assembly to use in your app.config

  <dependentAssembly>
    <assemblyIdentity name="someAssembly"
      publicKeyToken="32ab4ba45e0a69a1"
      culture="en-us" />

    <bindingRedirect oldVersion="7.0.0.0" newVersion="8.0.0.0" />
  </dependentAssembly>
