Hi there.

Im looking at using my existing Dll's I use, however cant see how to add them in to Warewolf

Ive followed the https://warewolf.io/knowledge-base/using-dlls/ knowledge base link for this however very confusing.

Can someone please create a video for this so I can see where to click?

What version of the .net framework does it have to be compiled against?

Hi,
Thanks for the feedback. We currently looking into making video's for various part of the system. Could you please provide a bit more detail as to what you found confusing about the article?

Warewolf uses .Net Framework 4.5.2 currently. However the version of the DLL you are using should not matter as long as it is a .Net DLL. If you are able to, please share the DLL with us and we can have a look as to why it is not working.

Thanks

Hey. I found it eventually.

Now struggling with dll's that need extra files such as xml settings files
and dll's that need extra dll's such as newtonsoft or MySQL.
If you could help with then then I'm rocking ahead!

Regards

Hi,

In terms of config files, those files will have to reside where your application expects it to be. If you are calling a method that requires a file path, you can pass it into the method as a input parameter. External DLL's that are required by your DLL must either be in the same folder your folder.

cool.

my Dll references the app.config settings file for app settings, So I need to reference this to a full path rather than just having a config file in the same folder? ????

Hi,

If your DLL reference to the app.config is correct then it should have no problem reading it. Warewolf simply loads your DLL and executes the selected method with the given parameters. Are you getting an error, is it possible to provide a screenshot? Or a sample of the DLL you are trying to use with its config and dependency DLL's?

Thanks
