    copied!<p>I am using the CookComputing XML-RPC Library in an attempt to build a C# console client in order to execute API methods on Moodle (an open-source Learning management system). The server is using ZEND XML-RPC.</p> <p><strong>When I run the code, I get a TypeLoadException was Unhandled</strong>, referring to this line: </p> <pre><code>System.Object myResults = proxy.moodle_user_get_user_by_id(myUserIds); </code></pre> <p><em>"Inheritance security rules violated while overriding member: 'CookComputing.XmlRpc.XmlRpcFaultException.GetObjectData(System.Runtime.Serialization.SerializationInfo, System.Runtime.Serialization.StreamingContext)'.
