DllNotFoundException

Unity Engine

Hi again wonderful people!

I’m getting the following output in my output_log.txt for a windows build of my game:

(Filename: \unitybuild\unity\Runtime\Export\Generated\BaseClass.cpp Line: 1555)

GLib: Cannot convert message: Conversion from character set ‘UTF-8’ to ‘CP1252’ is not supported

Unhandled Exception: System.DllNotFoundException: GAPlugin.dll

at (wrapper managed-to-native) takeShot.GACalculateResultData (string,takeShot/GF_SHOTDATA,takeShot/GARESULTDATA,bool,bool) <0x00044>
at takeShot.golfCallBack (string,int,takeShot/GF_SHOTDATA,string,intptr) <0x000dd>
at (wrapper native-to-managed) takeShot.golfCallBack (intptr,int,takeShot/GF_SHOTDATA,intptr,intptr) <0x0017c>

I’ve tried putting the dll in every folder of the project with no luck. Any ideas why my unity executable can’t find my dll?

Thanks as always!

Can you do a minimal project that basically only has your DLL and some script that tries to use it, and have the problem reproduced on Windows? If you can, send a bug report with that project attached.

Just as an update, the issue was that we included the extension in the attribute
[DllImport(“myDLL.dll”)] instead of

[DllImport(“myDLL”)]

Just as the documentation warns against =).

So to reiterate, don’t include the extension!
