Error - Expression Activity type 'VisualBasicValue`1' requires compilation in order to run

[mardoza (Marco Mendoza)]

Hi,

I just finished the REFramework walkthrough from the Robotic Enterprise Framework Deep Dive activity. Everything looks good. I even ran the “Validate Project” tool and no error was found. However, I’m getting this error when I run the whole project.

Any idea?

Hi @mardoza

Can you change all the double quotes inside that flow and try again?

Visual basic workflow compilation error

Hi, In windows legacy, it seems double quote is normalized and any double quote characer is accepted. However, at this time, in windows (.net6) ,in fact, only " (0x22) is accepted to express string literal. To make matter worse, it seems to occur only compiling. (Expression validator don’t raise an alert.) FYI, the following is sample for reproducing. The first Assign uses " 0x22 and second Assign uses “ and it fails in compiling.

Hello @mardoza

If you run the project is it working as expected? Or failing only during validate project?

Try to reopen the project and do it once.

Thanks

HI @mardoza

Can you try to run the process in the Dubug mode and share the error screenshot?

Kindly Downgrade the system package | Version 22.4.5 and check it

It turns out, one of the imported arguments in the “Invoke InitAllApplications workflow” had some weird quotation marks.
