Description

As explained in https://saxonica.plan.io/boards/3/topics/8450, I am not able to run the SaxonCS 11.1 .NET release from the command line on Windows, it gives a System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException.

An additional test on Linux also failed with the same exception.

Details:

PS C:\Users\Martin Honnen\OneDrive\Documents\xslt> & 'C:\Program Files\Saxonica\SaxonCS-11.1\SaxonCS.exe' query -t -qs:"current-dateTime()"

Or using transform:

It's interesting that it only happens with the built solution and it doesn't happen on the Mac...

The culprit is the attempt in the XmlResolver to find its version with FileVersionInfo.GetVersionInfo(assembly.Location). In the published executable, assembly.Location isn't set and it all goes sideways.

Upgraded to XmlResolver 1.1.0 which fixes the problem.
