How use dll in iLogic?

[Hubert_Los]

Hello,

I have created a .dll file. It works in VS Studio. But I can't use it in iLogic. How can I do this in iLogic?

AddReference "D:\Projects\dllSample.dll""

Dim oDll As New dllSample.dllClassName
oDll.dllFunctionName()

The code looks fine. Only one double quotes should be at the end of the first line

[cidhelp]

AddReference only accepts a DLL-Filename without path. The location is configured in the iLogic-Configuration.

Hi @cidhelp

The full path works as well. Maybe there can be some issues with references to the third party libraries if any, but reference to the single external DLL works.

@Hubert_Los, if the previous suggestions do not resolve this for you, then you might review this AU class.

of particular note would be the iLogic + Class Library section
