"Symbols for the module MyLibrary.dll were not loaded"?

Question

I'm trying to learn Windows Phone dev by making a basic app that provides information about Pokemon. To do this, I've created a portable class library (PokeLib.dll) so it's compatible with universal apps. I've tested this via a project in the same solution ("Test"), and it works fine. You can take a look at the code for these on my Github, but as far as I can tell, it's all good. These two projects are in the one solution. For the Windows Phone app's solution, I added PokeLib as an "existing project", added the references, and written some a couple lines of code to make sure I could call it okay:

MainPage.xaml:

<Grid>     <Grid.RowDefinitions>         <RowDefinition Height="auto"/>         <RowDefinition Height="*"/>     </Grid.RowDefinitions>      <Button Name="GetDataButton" Content="GetData" Click="GetDataButton_Click" Grid.Row="0" HorizontalAlignment="Center"/>     <TextBlock Name="DataText" Text="Click to get data" Grid.Row="1" Padding="10"/> </Grid> 

MainPage.xaml.cs:

    protected override void OnNavigatedTo(NavigationEventArgs e)     {         p = new Pokemon(1); // gets data for Pokemon #1 (Bulbasaur)     }      Pokemon p;     int counter = 0;      private async void GetDataButton_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)     {         DataText.Text = "Fetching... Count: " + ++counter;         if (counter == 1) // first time button's clicked         {             await p.Create(); // populates the data container             DataText.Text = String.Format("Pokemon #{0}: {1}", p.Id, p.Name);         }     } 

When I try to run this on a phone emulator, I get the following message: . I am building the project as "debug" and have "Enable Just My Code" unchecked. I am not sure what to do under the Symbols pane, but I can add a screenshot of that too, if it'd be useful.

Anyway, the app opens, but freezes when I press the GetData button. I expected it would freeze for a moment since that call is done synchronously, but this is permanent. However, no errors/exceptions are thrown. The debugger also doesn't respond when I attempt to step into the p.Create() call (likely stemming from the message in the screenshot).

Anyone have an idea of what I'm doing wrong? Thanks!

Answer 1

You can go to the Project Properties -> Build -> Advanced button -> Debug info drop-down and change its value to "full".

Answer 2

In Visual Studio I selected Build -> Clean Solution. That got rid of this message
