Greetings,
I am trying to use Monogame instead of XNA completly for packaging content (mainly, because it’s a major pain to do so)
Pipeline.exe works pretty good with most of my test content XMLs, but one, it won’t swallow (XNA has no problem with it).
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<XnaContent>
<Asset Type="MyTypes.VisibleGameComponentTemplate[]">
<Item Type="MyTypes.ButtonTemplate">
<Name>Okay</Name>
<ZOrder>100</ZOrder>
<Texture>OKButton</Texture>
<Box>200 10 200 50</Box>
</Item>
[...]
I am guessing the problem is the MyTypes.VisibleGameComponentTemplate[] which is a base type to, for example MyTypes.ButtonTemplate.
The error I receive is the following
[...]/MenuButtons.Xml
[...]/MenuButtons.Xml: error: Importer 'XmlImporter' had unexpected failure!
System.ArgumentNullException: Der Wert darf nicht NULL sein.

Sorry for the german exception message.
Is there anything I can do about it or are arrays of stuff not yet implemented?
Thanks,
Michael.
