This question has been discussed on several topics here but I can't find a solution for my case.
I have a library project I'm working on. Let's call it LibraryProject.
To test and validate it during the development process, I have another project in my vs solution. Let's call it LibraryProject.TestService.
The Library.TestService references the LibraryProject with a ProjectReference. It allows me to locally test the update of the LibraryProject without uselessly creating a nuget package and import it on a test project.
<ItemGroup><ProjectReference Include="..\LibraryProject\LibraryProject.csproj" /></ItemGroup>The LibraryProject is part of a core package that I import on all my projects. Let's call it SharedLibraries.I specified in the SharedLibraries.config.nuspec that the LibraryProject is a dependency and is required :
<dependencies><dependency id="LibraryProject" version="1.0.13" /></dependencies>So, everything is fine, when I include the SharedLibraries package, it also includes the LibraryProject as a Transitive Package.
But to make my life easier, my LibraryProject.TestService also includes the SharedLibraries package, and so it also includes the LibraryProject as a Transitive Package.
Now, when I try to run my project, I get a conflict error :
An assembly with the same simple name 'LibraryProject' has already been imported. Try removing one of the references (for example, '[...].libraryproject\1.0.13\lib\net70\LibraryProject.dll') or sign them to enable side-by-side execution.
And before this, I also get a warning :
warning MSB3243: Unable to resolve conflict between "LibraryProject, Version=1.0.13.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null" and "LibraryProject, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null". Arbitrarily choosing "LibraryProject, Version=1.0.13.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null".
The version 1.0.0.0 is obviously my local project. The one I want to include.
Unfortunately I can't override or even remove a Transitive Dependency.
How could I solve this conflict please ?
