Why can't I reference System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations?
I'm trying to use DataAnnotations in my WPF project to specify a maximum length of strings, with the following:
using System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations;
However, I get the error
The type or namespace name 'DataAnnotations' does not exist in the namespace 'System.ComponentModel' (are you missing an assembly reference?)
I've seen other examples where DataAnnotations does exist in this namespace. I'm using C#4. Is there any reason why I can't use this? What can I do to fix it?
You have to reference the assembly in which this namespace is defined (it is not referenced by default in the visual studio templates). Open your reference manager and add a reference to the System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations assembly (Solution explorer -> Add reference -> Select .Net tab -> select System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations from the list)
To Reference System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations
In a code file to have Using System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations; at the top of the file such as:
using System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations;
Add a .NET reference to your project by right clicking the project in solution explorer:
Hope this helps! This question helped me.
I also had the same problem and I resolved by adding the reference in one of my projects which didn't had the mentioned reference. If you have 2-3 projects in your solution, then check by adding this reference to the other projects.
