This was resolved.
The binding redirect *is* the solution, but in case of a VSIX, the
configuration in app.config won't be used. This is because in case of a
VSIX, the main executable is not the VSIX, but Visual Studio. One way to
configure binding redirects in this case is to write AssemblyInfo.cs of the
VSIX like this:
using Microsoft.VisualStudio.Shell;
using System.Reflection;
[assembly: AssemblyTitle("the-project-name.Vsix")]
[assembly: ProvideBindingRedirection(AssemblyName =
"System.Interactive.Async", NewVersion = "3.0.3000.0",
OldVersionLowerBound = "0.0.0.0", OldVersionUpperBound = "3.0.3000.0")]
Another issue that I didn't see at the time, but equally important, is that
the native libraries are not automatically included in the VSIX, and will
also raise a runtime error. One way to fix that is to include this in the
.csproj file of the VSIX:
<Target Name="IncludeDllsVsix" BeforeTargets="PrepareForBuild">
<PropertyGroup>
<Grpc_Regex>grpc_csharp_ext.*\.dll</Grpc_Regex>
</PropertyGroup>
<ItemGroup>
<Content
Condition="$([System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex]::IsMatch('%(Content.Identity)',
'$(Grpc_Regex)'))">
<IncludeInVSIX>True</IncludeInVSIX>
</Content>
</ItemGroup>
</Target>
Cheers,
