I’m building a WPF UI to use with bootstrapper on an install. The WPF UI uses Autofac for DI, and the common service locator.
Everything compiles correctly, but when I try to access any of the Autofac-registered types:
public static ILogger Logger => ServiceLocator.Current.GetInstance<ILogger>();
public static IWixViewModel WixViewModel => ServiceLocator.Current.GetInstance<IWixViewModel>();
I get the following exception:
System.IO.FileLoadException occurred HResult=0x80131040
Message=Could not load file or assembly 'Autofac, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=17863af14b0044da' or one of its dependencies. The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040)

What's confusing me is that nowhere in any of the projects in this solution do I reference anything other than Autofac 4.5. So why is something trying to load v3.5? AFAIK, the WIX toolset doesn't use Autofac, so I don't think that's the source of the problem.
