myo.dll cannot be loaded

[bibeglimbu]

While compiling the UWP application it says it cannot load myo.dll. I have referenced the myo.csproj into the work file

We haven't been actively updating this project for about two years now, but this is more than likely an error in the setup on your end and not with the code-base itself. I only say this because it was working and has worked for over two years now and we haven't modified it :)

Can you provide a screenshot or a more detailed error message so we can try to provide some assistance? Unfortunately vague error messages get vague support responses. There's not enough here for us to be able to provide any troubleshooting steps.

Thanks!

Thank you for the reply, I understand your response. I have attached an image that might make things clear. IT is a UWP application. The sample provided in the repository does seem to work but when i try to compile this app it just ends up as shown in the image.
Thank you again

Ah this is helpful! ;) Okay, are you able to show me a screenshot of you bin/x86 directory? Your uwp application is looking for the dll here because you're running as 32 bit. The contents of this folder should look the same as the bin/x86 directory of the provided sample application

[bibeglimbu]

Here it is, In addition i have also copied it to the main root of project where manifest file is located. Myosharp.dll is in the bin folder with x86 folder

Thank you

Bin directory looks fine to me (although not sure why there's an additional debug folder in there). If the application is being run from the bin directory above the x86 folder it should be able to find that dll. Unfortunately I don't have time to be pulling code and debugging but my only two other ideas are: - right click on that dll in Windows explorer, go to n properties, see if there's a "blocked" checkbox. This happens sometimes when downloading dlls and windows is quiet about it. - use a tool called "dependency walker" on that dll and see if there are missing dependencies some how I'm hoping it's just the first item because unfortunately otherwise I'm out of ideas.

Thank you, I will give it a little try and update if it works

I recreated a WPF project and used it DLL there which worked fine. I suppose it has something to do with UWP projects

@bibeglimbu
In UWP projects, you can not access data anywhere on your harddrive, unless the user permitted you to do so. Maybe this is the reason you can not load or find the dll. Just my 2 cents ;)

It is of course very late but I'd like to share what worked for me, for whatever it is worth.

Disclaimer: I have a Windows Forms app. But the error I was getting was same as that of OP.

What I did:

1. Add the MyoSharp project to the solution: Right click Solution, Click "Add">"Existing Project..." and select "MyoSharp.csproj". You will now be able to see the MyoSharp project, along with the Windows Forms App project, in the Solution Explorer.
2. Right click "References" of the Windows Forms App you want to hook MyoSharp with, click "Add Reference...". A window will pop up.
3. In that window, add the same "MyoSharp.csproj" (the one you added earlier) as the Reference.
