Common Problems

There is a component used in Wpf called PhoenixControlLib (used for Spin edits) which usually present problems with reference (Visual Studio presents a Warning "Unable to load the metadata for assembly 'PhoenixControlLib'"). If this happens, follow the bellow instructions:

1. Open devenv.exe.config (in C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE).
2. Add/modify this:
   <runtime/>
   <loadFromRemoteSources enabled="true" />
   ....
   <runtime/>
