Exception: MyGenerationSpec not found

[JPtenBerge]

I'm on a .NET 9 project and getting an exception:

PM> TypeGen generate
Generating files for project "."...
TypeGen : Unhandled exception: TypeGen.Cli.CliException: Type 'MyGenerationSpec' not found in TypeGen.Core or any of the assemblies: 'MyProject, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null'

I'm trying to use TypeGen for the first time. Installed the TypeGen NuGet package, added tgconfig.json, added MyGenerationSpec.cs and tried to run TypeGen generate:

Config and gen spec are straight from the docs:

{
	"generationSpecs": ["MyGenerationSpec"]
}

public class MyGenerationSpec : GenerationSpec
{
	public MyGenerationSpec()
	{
		AddClass<MyDto>();
	}
}

I've:

• Triple-checked the config and filenames, built everything, built in Debug configuration so the class wouldn't get optimized away during compilation, checked with ILSpy that the class really was in the assembly. It's there.
• Tried adding a namespace to the MyGenerationSpec , tried removing it, tried placing it in a subfolder. Rebuilt everything after every change.
• Tried the dotnet tool instead of using the Package Manager Console, same exception.

If I try not using generationSpecs, but use [ExportTsClass] above my classes, then it doesn't give me an exception anymore, it just doesn't output anything.

It looks like an issue with TypeGen reading project assembly from the older .NET directory in bin/, e.g. raised here: #189 .

Currently the solution is to remove the directories for the older .NET targets in bin/, but ultimately I'll need to add some assembly target checking to prevent this.
