System.TypeLoadException: Could not resolve type with token 01000019

I have a Xamarin.Forms solution which contains in each project (Android, iOS and Windows 8.1) a lib called Plugin.SecureStorage from here: https://github.com/sameerkapps/SecureStorage I installed it via NuGET in each project.

Everything works fine in iOS and Windows 8.1, the problem is in Android. The project in Android builds correctly, however at startup I get this:

[...]
Loaded assembly: MonoDroidConstructors [External]
09-27 18:14:49.880 D/Mono    (30329): Assembly Ref addref AppConsume.Droid[0xb8cb0608] -> mscorlib[0xb8c64bc0]: 23

Unhandled Exception:

System.TypeLoadException: Could not resolve type with token 01000019

What it does mean? is a bit cryptic to me. How can I resolve this problem?

Of course, as a requirement, I added this line...

SecureStorageImplementation.StoragePassword = "mypass";

in the MainActivity.cs of the Android project...

using System;

using Android.App;
using Android.Content.PM;
using Android.Runtime;
using Android.Views;
using Android.Widget;
using Android.OS;
using Plugin.SecureStorage;

namespace MyApp.Droid
{
    [Activity(Label = "MyApp", Icon = "@drawable/icon", MainLauncher = true, ConfigurationChanges = ConfigChanges.ScreenSize | ConfigChanges.Orientation)]
    public class MainActivity : global::Xamarin.Forms.Platform.Android.FormsApplicationActivity
    {
        protected override void OnCreate(Bundle bundle)
        {
            base.OnCreate(bundle);
            SecureStorageImplementation.StoragePassword = "mypass";
            global::Xamarin.Forms.Forms.Init(this, bundle);
            LoadApplication(new App());
        }
    }
}

I also found that changing the line position throws different 'token types' in the exception.

UPDATE: I just found the app runs sucessfully when compiling in Release Mode. However, not working in Debug mode is a problem that I would like to fix I don't think that is out of scope of this question.

Same error for me.

Problem:

I had different versions of the Xamarin.Forms package in my solution.

Solution:

Change in your Core, Droid and IOS project the Xamarin.Forms versions. Make sure that all versions are the same.

I hope this works.

Here is the complete solution

  1. Install nuget package https://www.nuget.org/packages/sameerIOTApps.Plugin.SecureStorage/

  2. Create SecureStorageLinkerOverride.cs in Droid project

    using System;
using Plugin.SecureStorage;

namespace MyApp.Droid
{
    public static class LinkerPreserve
    {
        static LinkerPreserve()
        {
            throw new Exception(typeof(SecureStorageImplementation).FullName);
        }
    }


        public class PreserveAttribute : Attribute
   {
   }

    

}

  3. Right click on Droid Project -> Property -> Android Option-> Linker -> "SDK Assemblies Only"

Now run your project. Comment bellow for any issues else marked it answer.

In Visual Studio 2015, running the project in Release Mode have no issues (if you don't change the default settings)

In Debug mode by selecting Linking: "SDK Assemblies Only" in Project Properties -> Android Options -> Linker, will run the project without problems.

Or just simply leave those Debug settings and add a file called "SecureStorageLinkerOverride.cs" in the Android project:

using System;
using Plugin.SecureStorage;

namespace MyApp.Droid
{
    public static class LinkerPreserve
    {
        static LinkerPreserve()
        {
            throw new Exception(typeof(SecureStorageImplementation).FullName);
        }
    }

    public class PreserveAttribute : Attribute
    {
    }

}
