[Android] app stuck on resource loading

[xperiandri]

Current behavior

When debugger is attached an app stuck at the line global::Windows.ApplicationModel.Resources.ResourceLoader.DefaultLanguage = "en"; in the App.InitializeComponent method

I tried applying <EmitCompilerGeneratedFiles>true</EmitCompilerGeneratedFiles> but I still cannot step into the App.InitializeComponent

When not attached it just closes

Expected behavior

App loads correctly

How to reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible)

Give me the suggestion on how can I narrow the problem further. I don't know how to create repro sample now

This feels like a .NET issue we won't be able to get around. You can try with different version of .NET to see if anything changes.

Do you mean net7.0 or different SDK like 8.0.202?

[jeromelaban]

Testing different versions like 8.0.300, or even net 9.0 if you're up for it. This feels like an ICU issue (we don't control that part of .NET).

@xperiandri out of curiosity and posterity - how did you resolve this please?

[xperiandri]

Probably I updated .NET version or workloads. I don't remember now
