Chart not rendered in UWP Release mode

[Paul van der stap]

I tried to use the SfChart targeting Android and UWP. All works great in Debug mode, but in Release mode the chart is not displayed for UWP. I tried both ARM and x86.

I used the GettingStartedDemo (which was initially targeting Android, iOS and Windows Phone 8.0) but I extended it with a UWP project.

I referenced Syncfusion.SfChart.UWP, Syncfusion.SfChart.XForms and Syncfusion.SfChart.XForms.UWP in the UWP project and I also added the new SfChartRenderer(); in the MainPage() constructor.

The Debug build compiled and run well, but the Release built shows the following warnings:

2>G:\My Documents\Visual Studio 2015\Projects\Chart_GettingStarted\GettingStartedDemo.UWP\sg.exe : warning : SG0002 : Cannot generate serialization code for type 'Syncfusion.UI.Xaml.Charts.SerializableSfChart'

2>G:\My Documents\Visual Studio 2015\Projects\Chart_GettingStarted\GettingStartedDemo.UWP\sg.exe : warning : SG0002 : Cannot generate serialization code for type 'Syncfusion.UI.Xaml.Charts.SerializableWatermark'

etc....

and when running the code, the chart is not displayed

Hi Paul, 

  

Thanks for contacting Syncfusion Support. 

  

In order to work our Syncfusion components (third party components) in release mode with enabling .Net Native tool chain, we have to include Renderer type assembly as like in the below code snippet.    

  

App.Xaml.cs 

 

List<Assembly> assembliesToInclude = new List<Assembly>(); 

 

assembliesToInclude.Add(typeof(Syncfusion.SfChart.XForms.UWP.SfChartRenderer).GetTypeInfo().Assembly); 

 

Xamarin.Forms.Forms.Init(e , assembliesToInclude); 

 

  

  

We have prepared a demo sample for your reference and it can be downloaded from below link, 

  

Sample: XamarinDemo
