.NET Native compiler keeps throwing compilation errors

I've been trying to compile my app using the .NET Native toolchain for days and I still didn't manage to get it working.

If I try to compile it without using the .NET Native option (so in Debug mode), everything works just fine and the app is compiled and runs as expected.

But, whenever I try to compile it in release mode, as soon as the .NET Native process kicks in, I get the following errors:

1>C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft.NetNative\ARM\ilc\IlcInternals.targets(886,5): error : System.InvalidOperationException: Unable to generate a temporary class (result=1).

1>C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft.NetNative\ARM\ilc\IlcInternals.targets(886,5): error : error CS0012: The Type 'Windows.UI.Xaml.DependencyObject' is defined in an assembly that is not referenced.

1>C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft.NetNative\ARM\ilc\IlcInternals.targets(886,5): error : in SerializationAssemblyGenerator.Program.Main(String[] args)

I tried to find something on Google, but without results.

I really don't know if I'm doing something wrong here or if there's something I can do to fix this. As I said, when I compile the project in debug mode, without the .NET Native, everything is fine.

Thank you for your help!

This is most likely caused by a *.rd.xml file in your application or set of libraries that is being too inclusive. Look for overly broad uses of XmlSerialize ex:

Most likely, you don't actually need to serialize EVERYTHING in MyAssembly and those kinds of broad inclusions make it much more likely that the serialization generator with choke and crash.
