Hello.

I created a dll on C#.

I want to add and use it on AX.

So I put the dll on folder: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Dynamics AX\60\Client\Bin

and add reference to it on reference node on AX.

Now I want to use it.

I just add a code.

MYReferenceLib l; // (MyReferenceLib is the library) and then I got the error:

Variable MYReferenceLib has not been declared.

1. What shall I have to do in order the code will compile?

2. Can I add reference and refer it on the client side (also add the dll on the client side)?

Thanks :)

Hi,

open visual studio -> create new project -> Class Library -> right click add to AOT, then click properties for the project -> Deploy to client Yes.

Regards,

Bilal

No.

Still I cannot compile the code.

Here is my code on C#:

using System;

using System.Collections.Generic;

using System.Linq;

using System.Text;

using System.Runtime.InteropServices;

namespace SPLWinAPI2

{

class GeneralAPI

{

public GeneralAPI()

{

}

private delegate bool EnumWindowsProc(IntPtr hWnd, IntPtr lParam);

[DllImport("user32.dll")]

[return: MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.Bool)]

private static extern bool EnumChildWindows(IntPtr hwndParent, EnumWindowsProc lpEnumFunc, IntPtr lParam);

static bool getChildWindows(IntPtr hwndParent, EnumWindowsProc lpEnumFunc, IntPtr lParam) {

EnumWindowsProc childProc = new EnumWindowsProc(EnumWindow);

EnumChildWindows(hwndParent, lpEnumFunc, lParam);

return false;

}

private static bool EnumWindow(IntPtr handle, IntPtr pointer)

{

return false;

}

public int testc()

{

return 123;

}

}

}

I created a library dll. Copied it to: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Dynamics AX\60\Client\Bin

(I have tried to copy it to server bin folder - same problem).

Stop+Start the service (should I?)

Here is reference in code in AX:

SPLWinAPI2 b; // this is not compileable.

SPLWinAPI2.GeneralAPI c; // this is not compileable.

Thanks :)

Your C# class is not declared public.

OK, I didn't notice that.

Now I am getting exception: CLRObject object not initialized.

What may be the reason for that?

That depends on your calling code from AX. If you can share the X++ code, we can review.

Anyway, about the exception - I have managed.

BTW, I want the code run on client and not on server. How can I ensure that?

Thanks.

The error says only that an exception occurred in a .NET class constructor.

There is no single universal solution for all possible exceptions in all classes in the world. You must look at your what error you're getting in which class in your particular scenario.
