App Extensions - Special Compiler Options

In rare cases you must add compiler references for extension AppCode. Keep this configuration inside the extension AppCode folder so it can be packaged with the extension.

Create a compile.json file in:

/AppCode/Extensions/{ExtensionName}/

Example:

{
  // References for .net 10+ (Oqtane)
  "References": [],
  // References for .net4 (DNN)
  "References.net4": [
    "System.Net.Http, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a"
  ]
}
Tip

The example adds System.Net.Http for DNN (References.net4).

It's also needed if you have custom WebApi controllers returning HttpResponseMessage. Without this reference, you may encounter compilation errors.
