Studio 2017 - SR1: System.MissingMethodException

Question

Good day, 
 
 I have developed a plugin that was working on both 2015 and 2017 versions. After updating Studio 2017 to the latest version (14.1.10009.15268) i am getting the following error: Method not found: 'Boolean Sdl.TranslationStudioAutomation.IntegrationApi.Document.SetActiveSegmentPair(System.String, System.String). 
 I noticed that one out of the three method overloads is obsolete. I am not using that one though (not that it would be discontinued). The plugin was working fine in earlier versions of the SDK. I cannot find any other clue regarding what is wrong regarding the Sdl.TranslationStudioAutomation.IntegrationApi.dll assembly. 
 I also point the fact that this is/was a public/exposed method and no kind of reflection was used for this matter. 
 I would appreciate any suggestions. 
 
 Best regards, 
 George

What I was trying to say there is that the default behaviour is the same as it used to be (no focus change). Indeed the method has now an optional parameter with changes the method signature. 
 
There are 2 options to solve this: 
1. Have 2 plugin versions published on the appstore. One for Studio 2017 CU9 or later and one for Studio 2015 and Studio 2017 up to CU8. 
2. The second option would be to change the implementation and call the method dynamically using reflection. This gives the ability in the code to check the method parameter list and pass only what is needed.

Hi TAUS DQF Dev Team ,

There were late changes made to the API in CU9 which could affect your implementation. Hopefully a simple fix but you will have to update your application.
