Here is our question: How can recompile Google drive api sdk in dotnet? => We didn't find the source code. => In the binary package, there a single source file not shipped with a project and we don't know what to do with it.
Reason of the question:
In dotnet, we're unable to use the latest Google Drive api dll downloaded from Google: Google.Apis.Drive.v2
We are getting compilation errors like:
Warning 10 The primary reference "Google.Apis.Drive.v2" could not be resolved because it has an indirect dependency on the framework assembly "System.Runtime, Version=1.5.11.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a" which could not be resolved in the currently targeted framework. ".NETFramework,Version=v4.0". To resolve this problem, either remove the reference "Google.Apis.Drive.v2" or retarget your application to a framework version which contains "System.Runtime, Version=1.5.11.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a".
Cause: This is because we are in Visual Studio 2010 with dotnet framework 4.0. Apparently Google.Apis.Drive.v2 is compiled with dependencies to framework 4.5.
We cannot upgrade our project to Dotnet framework 4.5 because we have only Visual Studio 2010 and it would take months of testing upgrading to visual studio 2012.
Troubleshooting We have tried to use Binding redirection in app.config files but it's not working with Class library projects that reference assemblies that need redirection (here Google.Apis.Drive.v2). For information, binding redirection was working fine if we changed the project to console application but failed when we switched back to class library.
@Google support: - Where do we download the source code of Google Drive api dll and how do we build it? - Do you plan to ship a library for dotnet 4.0 because forcing 4.5 will block a lot of companies?
回答1:
I finally found the source code for older versions (that compiled with .NET 3.5) at: http://code.google.com/p/google-api-dotnet-client/source/browse/Services/?repo=samples&name=1.3.0-beta (Google Drive in particular - it doesn't seem to exist in the main set).
I'm having trouble interacting with the source repository with Mercurial, but I was able to directly download the CS file and compile it in my own project. I'll edit if I learn more.

You can checkout the code from https://code.google.com/p/google-api-dotnet-client/source/browse/
