I am trying to replicate some functionality of other app, which uses CyStat.dll. Here is the app itself
https://mega.nz/#!sIRggKST!UEeAWgcT9ONbyc0WgFagI-0G36zxvEK1dMwzw3NYd60
It's basically a status monitoring tool for a specific printer
My problem is this: I get this error every time I try to use the dll:
'Unable to load DLL 'CyStat.dll': A dynamic link library (DLL) initialization routine failed. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007045A)'
I know that usually that is because some dependencies are missing. Here are the dependencies that it uses:
They are definitely present on my machine, and by the way, original app that I am trying to replicate, works fine
Here is the code I use to call the methods from the dll:
[DllImport("CyStat.dll", CharSet = CharSet.Ansi, SetLastError = true)]
public static extern int CvInitialize([MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPWStr)] string pszPortName);
var res = CvInitialize("DS-RX1");
I also tried decompiling that app and copy-pasting code from there, but it fails with the same error
Thanks in advance for any help
So, I had that error in question accompanied by the System.DllNotFoundException, which I did not notice right away My dll was dependent on kernel32.dll and winspool.drv. When I noticed that exception, I realized that I tried to load 32 bit dll on my 64 bit system. So I just tried 64 bit version and it worked perfectly
