Could not load file or assembly 'Leadtools.Codecs', if anyone is familiar with leadtools
I get an exception on the last line of the following code (sorry for the format, won't let me post it any other way):
LeadHelper.Unlock();
RasterCodecs codecs = new RasterCodecs();
string imageLocation = @"...path...\Barcodes.tif";
RasterImage srcImage = codecs.Load(imageLocation);
The exception reads:
System.BadImageFormatException: Could not load file or assembly 'Leadtools.Codecs, Version=17.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, ..........' or one of its dependencies. An attempt was made to lead a program with an incorrect format.
In an effort to try to get rid of this exception, I referenced every possible Leadtools.Codecs.* DLL, Leadtools.dll... pretty much every single Leadtools dll we could possibly reference.
For my includes, I included Leadtools, Leadtools.Barcode, Leadtools.Codecs, Leadtools.Codecs.Tif, Leadtools.Codecs.Fax, and Leadtools.Forms
This is for a test console app I'm making to read barcodes... VS2010 C#.
Also, I most definitely have access to the file, it's a reference to a network file but have tried referencing it locally, checked permissions, etc etc
Answer
The message typically means that you are trying to load a 32 bit DLL on a 64 bit system or vice versa.
Verify that you have the correct version of the DLLs and their dependencies.
