Posted on by CRSW 625

Hi I cannot add a dll into the AOT-resource in my Axapta4.0 installation.

I get the ClrObject static method invocation error when system call the GetAssemblyName method

Any suggestions or ideas

    What can you tell us about the DLL? For example, it's is a .NET assembly at all? For which version of .NET framework? For which processor architecture?

    How are you using the file? Where and why are you calling GetAssemblyName()?

    it's a .net assembly (messagingtoolkit.QrCode) Version I am not sure.

    I do not use the file because it fails to add it as reference in AX. The GetAssemblyName is called when adding it to the reference and it fails. Thats why I cannot add it (exception thrown)

    All right, please find out the missing information. It's likely that you're trying to import an incompatible assembly. Don't forget that AX 4.0 is thirteen years old; it uses .NET Framework 2.0. You can simply put modern assemblies there and expect that AX 4.0 will know how to work with them.

    you are right its from 2012 and uses .net 3.5

    So I have to find another way to create QR Code from AX4

    short question.

    I found a .net copiled QRCode DLL.

    I can add it to the AOT-resource but later (trying to initialize it in the code) I get an error that it cannot be loaded

    Error loading Assembly ThoughtWorks.QRCode, Version=1.0.2774.19990, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null

    Do I have to add all used libraries in the QRCode as well?

    Yes, it the assembly requires other assemblies that aren't installed in the system, its loading will fail. It can't work without assemblies it depends on.
