Hello,

I recently joined to a existing ASP.NET project, developing in VS 2005.
I got same copy of project folder from my senior and his solution is working fine.

But I'm getting runtime error related to one dll called 'NetISMConverter.dll'.
But I checked I've referenced above dll correctly.

When I decompile above dll using redgate .net reflector tool,
I found that it is importing other dll like below,
[DllImport("UniUTF_WDLL.dll")]

I searched UniUTF_WDLL.dll in
C:\Windows\System32 folder and registry in mine and senior system, but not found.

Please help me, where I can get above dll.

Thanks

Go talk to your senior, and ask him.
That way, you get the full suite (as there is a good chance that one DLL is not the only one called) and the correct version of them as well.

Thanks for reply, I asked him, he only aware about 'NetISMConverter.dll', but not 'UniUTF_WDLL.dll'.
But what I want is from where windows will serve 'UniUTF_WDLL.dll' to my application at runtime.

That file appears to be part of your code-base - the only result Google can find for it is this thread.

Therefore, you need to talk to someone working on your project who knows where the file is. Nobody here is likely to know.

And as a matter of some urgency.
Otherwise, "release to production" is going to meet a few snags...:laugh:

In ASP.NET, the required binaries must be under /bin/ folder. That is from where your application will reference the assemblies, and even better, if you are using Visual Studio, is to use the "Add Reference" and then select the dll you want to include.

Your application, ASP.NET, has a runtime based on the hosting environment. So you cannot be sure about whether it would be C drive, D drive or any other virtual environment being provided to your application. That is why, ASP.NET looks for assemblies under /bin/ folder. As OriginalGriff said, ask your seniors for details on capturing the dlls.
