The following source code sample demonstrates how to load DWG/DXF files from a .NET application compiled against AnyCPU. It includes the operating system bitness detection, dynamic loading of the Eyeshot x86 or x64 DLL from a separate folder and the instantiation of the ReadAutodesk class using reflection.Â
Sample: BitnessAgnosticReadDWG_WinForms_v11.

Hi Matteo, I have tried this v11 program and it still loads okay in x86, but not x64.
I made a quick video to show how I am testing and what I am doing to try and solve the problem - https://1drv.ms/v/s!AhjMss4NTevChYtGO3d4fTnXO5HLIA
I hope I'm doing something wrong... very strange...
Thanks,

Hi James,
Did you install also Microsoft Visual C++ 2012 Redistributable Package x64 or just Microsoft Visual C++ 2012 Redistributable Package x86?
It could be that the problem.

I did the VS2017 x64 from the link above.
Does this require VS2012 instead?
Yes, as written here. ;)
Hey... that worked!!
This is what I had to install - https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/confirmation.aspx?id=30679
