<p>If your SOLIDWORKS PDM Professional 2012 or earlier version add-in application
|
||||
is compiled using Microsoft Visual Studio and a .NET Framework version
|
||||
other than version 2.0, then SOLIDWORKS PDM Professional may show the following message when you
|
||||
try to load the
|
||||
add-in:<br><br>
|
||||
“The Archive Server could not open the Windows Registry.”<br>
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li><font face="Verdana" style="font-size: 8pt">C# or VB.NET</font><p>To
|
||||
solve this problem, try changing your add-in project’s target framework to .NET
|
||||
Framework 2.0:</p></li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
<blockquote>
|
||||
<ol>
|

<li class=kadov-p>Right-click the project in the <b>Solution Explorer</b>.</li>
|
||||
<li class=kadov-p>Select <b>Properties</b>.</li>
|

<li class=kadov-p>Click <b>Compile > Advanced Compile Options</b>.</li>

<li class=kadov-p>Click <b>OK</b>.</li>

</ol>
|

<p>After changing your project’s target framework to .NET Framework 2.0, you might
|
||||
no longer be able to reference the SOLIDWORKS PDM Professional
|
||||
<i>nnnn</i>
|
||||
Type Library (<b>EdmInterface.dll</b>), because Visual Studio created the DLL using the latest version of .NET Framework,
|
||||
but you just changed the
|
||||
project to target an earlier version of .NET Framework (2.0). If you encounter this
|
||||
problem, you can generate a compatible SOLIDWORKS PDM Professional primary interop
|
||||
assembly by using the Microsoft's Type Library Importer (<b>TlbImp.exe)</b> that is
|
||||
included in an earlier
|
||||
version of the Microsoft .NET Framework SDK.</p>
|
||||
<ol>
|
||||
<li class=kadov-p>Download and install a version of .NET Framework SDK that is
|
||||
compatible with your add-in project's version.</li>
|
||||
<li class=kadov-p>Open a Windows Command Prompt.</li>
|
||||
<li class=kadov-p>Navigate to <b>C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v</b><i>x.x</i><b>\Bin</b>
|
||||

|
||||
installed.</li>

the new interop ssembly.</li>
