Where is the NuGet package for Microsoft.WindowsAz

问题:

We had previously been referring to our Windows Azure libraries via the SDK and I noticed that they have NuGet packages for them now. This is obviously way better, so I'm swapping out all of those references for the NuGet packages.

However, I can't find a NuGet package for Microsoft.WindowsAzure.ServiceRuntime.dll that contains classes such as RoleEnvironment, etc.

Are we supposed to be referencing this dll from the SDK installation and not a nuget package? That seems extremely odd. Am I just not seeing the package for this assembly?

I've now installed all of the "windowsazureofficial" tagged packages (just temporarily) and none of them seem to have the correct reference!

回答1:

The latest Windows Azure SDK is 1.7 so If you need updated Microsoft.WindowsAzure.ServiceRuntime you would have to manually install the SDK in your machine and add those references to your role.

For anyone still battling, make sure you look under Assemblies > Extensions ;) This has now got me twice within 3 months!

I had a similar problem.

Option 1)

I added a dll libray in my Google Drive Storage: Microsoft.WindowsAzure.CloudDrive

In this case you should download and create a "static" link.

Option 2)

and I found a NuGet Package:

Azure SDK 2.2 DLLs

PM> Install-Package AzureSDK2.2DLLs

If you need more information, please contact me.

You need to install the particular version of the Azure SDK which you want to build with.

Actually you only need to install certain parts of it including the reference libraries(there are multiple parts of the SDK you can download separately) - and it depends which assemblies you are looking for.

e.g. for 2.2 or 2.3 SDK and Microsoft.WindowsAzure.ServiceRuntime or Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Diagnostics assemblies, you need the 'WindowsAzureAuthoringTools' MSI installer - not the 'WindowsAzureLibsForNet-x64' MSI, which installs some of the other reference libraries.

There doesn't appear to be one at this time, but I found this: AnglicanGeek's Unofficial Windows Azure Service Runtime 1.6

回答6:

It's now a regular package on NuGet:

Install-Package Microsoft.WindowsAzure.SDK

回答7:

List with all Azure Packages: Azure SDK for .NET

Note: Before downloading the SDK files, review the installation steps to understand the process and dependencies involved in installing the SDK. For SDK 1.7 and later releases, use the installation steps included with the Manual Installers links below. For SDK 1.6 and earlier, follow the installation steps listed later on this page.

You can find Microsoft.WindowsAzure.ServiceRuntime.dll located in the path:

Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows Azure\.NET SDK\<sdk_version>\bin\runtimes\base

Its likely that they don't want to distribute the core parts of the SDK so you still have a requirement to install the actual SDK. I messaged (via nuget) the owners of the "windowsazureofficial" nuget packages and asked for feedback and I'll update this if I hear back.

As for upgrading, first get the sdk and then follow the upgrade instructions here. The references will automatically be updated and it will convert local references to nuget package references as well, when it can.
