Help

Hi everyone,

I am using System.DirectoryServices.AccountManagement.UserPrincipal.Current.EmailAddress in my code, that’s why I need to import the namespace System.DirectoryServices.AccountManagement.

For two xamls the import is working, but wierdly not for the last one.

For the import I added
System.DirectoryServices.AccountManagement
and
<x:String>System.DirectoryServices.AccountManagement</x:String>
to their xamls.

I also tried to install the namespace as a package, but the installation always fails, whichever version.

My studio is version 2019.10.2

Any help is appreciated.

@Ansreng,

What error you get? Maybe that 3rd xaml needs something else, maybe System.DirectoryServices…

One of the files that are not showing a validation error has the errormessage “Enter own mail address: The object of the type “System.DirectoryServices.AccountManagement.GroupPrincipal” cannot be converted into “System.DirectoryServices.AccountManagement.UserPrincipal”” (translated).

The one with the validation error says ““DirectoryServices” is not a member of “System”” (translated), even though System.DirectoryServices.AccountManagement is being imported.

Thanks, but this didn’t work for me.

Those are 2 different (and separated) namespaces, that you might need to import:

  • System.DirectoryServices
  • System.DirectoryServices.AccountManagement
