Issue with v10 SyntaxEdit with DevExpress controls

AlterNET Studio Support
1

Hi, I’ve recently upgraded to v10. I have a form with a SyntaxEdit control and a DevExpress grid control (Windows forms) amongst others. Since upgrading, I receive an error message when assigning a datasource to the grid:

SystemError: The type initializer for ‘IEditableCollectionViewHelper’ threw an exception.
Inner exception: SystemError: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

After I receive the error, I keep on getting the error when I assign data to any grid on any form.

This error only occurs if I assign text to the SyntaxEdit control. If I leave it blank, it’s fine.

I’ve discovered that this only occurs in v10 - I have rolled back to 9.5.16 and it works fine (using the same version of DevExpress controls).

Any ideas?

Could you please attach a sample project that demonstrates the issue? Does it occur in a .NET Framework or .NET Core application? I tried to reproduce the problem in a .NET Core app, but the DataSource was assigned to the DevExpress grid without any issues. Is this a design-time or run-time issue?

Thanks for your reply. I can’t get it to happen in a standalone application - there is obviously something else at play. Once I’ve pinned down the culprit I’ll post an update.
