I'm working on a Web.API application in .NET 4.5.
The application is complaining about the dotnet_emdq.dll reference that I am using because the .dll is compiled under .NET version 2.0.
I'm using the latest version of the SDK, 4.1, and this is the .dll that is shipping with it.
So I'm looking for either a version of the .DLL compiled on a later version of the .NET framework, or a workaround as to how I can make this old file work within a newer framework project.
The error I receive is the following:
Could not load file or assembly 'Core' or one of its dependencies. An attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format.
I created a test console application,and changed the startup tag in the app.config to use legacy runtime, it works.
<startup useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy="true"><supportedRuntime version="v4.0" sku=".NETFramework,Version=v4.5"/></startup>
However, this does not appear to work within the web.config file for my web.api project.
