Good morning folks,

I have a 32-bit application using IEvolution 8.0 for .Net. I am using Visual Studio 2017 and by a no means an expert developer of any sort.

My application started just quitting, no exception, warnings or other recently. I turned on 'Enable Native Code Debugging' in Visual Studio and found it was having exceptions with icore.dll.

Previously the app had been working through several other version and I suspected my code, but I couldn't figure out where it was failing.

I went back to where the iecore.dll was at on my machine and found it wound up in c:\windows\SYSWOW64. I tried rebooting and deleting this file, but it was in use without anything running. I went to Safe Mode and deleted it finally.

In the manual installation instructions it says to copy iecore.dll, ievolution2.dll and ielib32.dll to your assemblies directory for 32-bit applications. Where is that exactly? The same folder the EXE is compiled in?

It also said if you had trouble with a 64-bit OS (using 32 bit application) copy iecore.dll to \windows\system. I did this.

So, where SHOULD these files be? When distributing my application, where should they reside on the runtime machine?

Thanks in advance!

Hi

If you use the installer, it will register the assembly in the install folder, so it does not need to be copied to Windows. I would first search your system for any ie*.dll files and remove them. Then run the installer again.

I cleaned out the whole system, uninstalled iEvolution 8, reinstalled with default settings and see 4 locations for iecore.dll:

C:\>dir iecore.dll /s /b
C:\Program Files\IEvolution\IEvolution32\iecore.dll
C:\Program Files\IEvolution\IEvolution64\iecore.dll
C:\Windows\System32\iecore.dll
C:\Windows\SysWOW64\iecore.dll

Is this the correct setup?

Yes, that looks correct for a 64bit system.

I assume these two are the same version:

C:\Program Files\IEvolution\IEvolution64\iecore.dll
C:\Windows\System32\iecore.dll

As are these two:

C:\Program Files\IEvolution\IEvolution32\iecore.dll
C:\Windows\SysWOW64\iecore.dll
