I got this error:
rsUnexpectedCompilerError: An unexpected error occurred while compiling expressions. Native compiler return value: ‘-1073741511’
,when compiling rdlc's on a new box on Visual Studio 2015 on a Windows 8.1 box for an existing project
This happens on every existing rdlc file in the project that has an expression.
I checked that. I have the latest sql server data tools (ssdt) installed.
I also created a brand new console application with empty report with no expressions and it compiles fine. When I add an expression to that empty report, like in the example below, it refuses to compile.
Does anyone have any idea how can I get Visual Studio to be able to compile rdlcs with expressions? The computer used to do this before it was re-imaged with windows 8.1.
Here's an example of a file that will not compile:
