StackExchange.Redis.ID database exists in two DLLs

There is a lot of confusion between strong dll names and namespaces without strong names.

You can easily fix this problem using extern alias

.

• Right click on the project references and select the DLL you want to upload, go to the properties window. Then change the field value Aliases
  
  to whatever you want. For example: "Redis".

• Then go to your consumer source file and add:

  extern alias Redis;
  
  using System;
  // ... other references
  using Redis::StackExchange.Redis;
  
  namespace Foo
  {
      public class Program
      {
          public static void Main(string[] args)
          {
              using (ConnectionMultiplexer connection = ConnectionMultiplexer.Connect("myConn"))
              {
                  // use StackExchange API here.
              }
          }
      }
  }
  
        
  
          
          
          
        
  
      

There is also an issue in the StackExchange repository explaining more about StrongName vs Non-StrongName.
