How do I solve the .NET CF exception “Can't find PInvoke DLL”?

问题


This is to all the C# gurus. I have been banging my head on this for some time already, tried all kinds of advice on the net with no avail. The action is happening in Windows Mobile 5.0.

I have a DLL named MyDll.dll. In the MyDll.h I have:

extern "C" __declspec(dllexport) int MyDllFunction(int one, int two);

The definition of MyDllFunction in MyDll.cpp is:

int MyDllFunction(int one, int two)
{
    return one + two;
}

The C# class contains the following declaration:

[DllImport("MyDll.dll")]
extern public static int MyDllFunction(int one, int two);

In the same class I am calling MyDllFunction the following way:

int res = MyDllFunction(10, 10);

And this is where the bloody thing keeps giving me "Can't find PInvoke DLL 'MyDll.dll'". I have verified that I can actually do the PInvoke on system calls, such as "GetAsyncKeyState(1)", declared as:

    [DllImport("coredll.dll")]
    protected static extern short GetAsyncKeyState(int vKey);

The MyDll.dll is in the same folder as the executable, and I have also tried putting it into the /Windows folder with no changes nor success. Any advice or solutions are greatly appreciated.


回答1:


Maybe this seems like an obvious thing to check, but are you compiling the native DLL for the correct CPU architecture? IIRC, Windows Mobile runs on multiple CPU architectures.




回答2:


I have the same problem, but this time there is no obvious difference in the platforms involved. Why is it something that is supposed to be 'normal' is so badly documented, so difficult and worst of all so 'flaky'. Are there ANY tools that allow me to go onto my PPC emulator, and stop by step check (a) that the dll is where CLR expects it (I have put it both in the same directory, and the windows directory on the emulator - I can see it is there usign the emulators file explorer), (b) that CLR can load it (has enough memory etc), (c) that CLR can then find what functions are present (useful if I can get beyond the stupid 'can't find the dll' error)

I'd love to force Gates or indeed any of the 'windows mobile' team to use the crap they create.




回答3:


The exception you listed and the pinvoke signature you put in the question have different names: MyDll.dll and ThreadBenchLib.dll respectively. Was that a typo or the problem?

If it's not the problem try opening the DLL in depends. It's possible the DLL load is failing because of an unmet dependency.




回答4:


I am having the same problem. I used the Depends.exe to look for WinCE dll dependencies, and It depends of debug dll. (MSVCR90D.dll) To solve the problem I compiled a release version, and confirm the dependencies, after that it works fine.

I hope to help
