iOS App displays white screen when trying to use FlowListView from custom library about dltoolkit.forms.controls

Probably Xamarin's linker cuts it out. Call FlowListView.Init() somewhere in your project which uses your custom library.

Sorry, I forgot to mention that I tried that.

I've tried calling Init from a static bootstrapper class in my library (from my project) as well as calling Init in just my project.

I'll try creating a sample project by the weekend.

• Do you use nuget release for that or add dlls manually?
• Do all projects in test app have that nuget added?

Maybe you could share some code? It would be a lot harder to help you without it.

[ScottMacDougall]

Yes, nuget references in both the library and the calling project.

I'll whip up a sample project by the end of the weekend.

Sure, you could try to add dll file manually, maybe it would solve your issue. It's just a one dll only.

I am having the same issue and I found out the issue is with iOS 10.1. If I use the iOS 9.3 emulator it works just fine.

@Qwin did you find the solution? I am also facing the same problem in iOS 10.1 .

[daniel-luberda]

It may be related to Xamarin linking. Try to put var ignore = new TagEntryView() somewhere in code-behind.

[daniel-luberda]

Did you work it out?

@daniel-luberda @Jamal-deen I worked it out however, I didn't get it to work with adding the assembly. (just copied the source code in my pcl project) I think it has to do with the PCL profile version + nuget adding my dll libraries with xamarin studio. Because when starting a new project it would work fine for my friend. I am using currently profile 111 + xamarin studio + ios 10.1. I tried also calling one of the controls from code behind so that I could see if it was a linker issue however that only gave the same error meaning issues importing the dll.

This: 647bc9e also should help. Closing :)
