I have a namespace and class name conflict between two external assemblies. In my Visual Studio solution I am able to solve this by giving one of the assemblies an alias in properties on the assembly reference.
I then can do the following when I need to use the aliased assembly:
extern alias MyAlias;
using MyAlias::Conflicted.NameSpace;This works very nicely in Visual Studio but in Xamarin Studio there is no way I can find to set an alias for an assembly in my iOS project. I tried doing in manually in the project file, but this doesn't seem to get picked up when the project is built.
I get the following error:
The extern alias 'MyAlias' was not specified in -reference option
Is it possible to use extern aliases in Xamarin Studio?
