Common Language Runtime detected an invalid program.

Anonymous — Mon, 27 Mar 2017 09:37:24 GMT

I got error when I read file dwg using C#:

My code :

Database db = new Database(false, true)

db.ReadDwgFile(filename, FileOpenMode.OpenForReadAndAllShare, false, null);

Error:

An unhandled exception of type 'System.InvalidProgramException' occurred in ReadCADFile.exe

Additional information: Common Language Runtime detected an invalid program.

How to resolve this problem ?

1. Wrong forum selected for this question. Right forum is https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/net/bd-p/152

2. You can not use AutoCAD .NET API with external exe-application. It can be used only in inproc dll addin, which loaded in AutoCAD with NETLOAD command.

Dear Alexander.Rivilis,

Thanks for your reply

You mean : I' LL build DLL then add them to AutoCad and use NetLoad Command to call them ?

NETLOAD command is using not for call dll, but for load it into AutoCAD.

Hi,

Why then, in documentation for 2021, said that it can be used in .net standalone app?

https://help.autodesk.com/view/OARX/2021/ENU/?guid=GUID-71554E76-8FD5-4853-82CD-3587764CBCAC

Either documentation is wrong, or is incomplete - missing instructions how to do it.

Btw, I have similar problem, trying to read .cuix file (to customize UI) from standalone .net app.

Using the .NET API in a standalone program requires the RealDWG SDK which is a licensed product and not free.
