Not sure if it is important, but in the process of an investigation found this in my project
Not sure where is the source of the problem
5.3-164
Hello @yar,
Thanks for the report!
The error is misleading.
In the newest build, it won’t show up anymore in the Errors and Warnings window.
As an explanation attempt:
It’s an error that only shows up when looking at the document in a sandboxed way. A precompiled document doesn’t have to be compiled (as the precompiled dll is already running). We, however, compile it in order to be able to show some more information in the tooltips, like data types… This is done in a sandboxed way as we don’t want to change anything. The precompiled version is up and running and we just want to offer a nicely rendered peek at the source code. This sandboxed compilation strategy leads to some errors that aren’t real.
As soon as you run vvvv with editable-packages * you’d have the behavior as in the vvvv gamma release before 5.0. The document would show up just fine.
Anyway, in the future you won’t get tricked into looking at false errors anymore.
