Reading shapefile with C# EasyGIS

Question

I am trying to read a shapefile using EasyGIS with C#.

My code seems to work except for the last row were i call the GetRecord method.

The exception i get is:

System.ArgumentException: 'fieldIndex must be <= DBFRecordHeader.NumFields and >=0'

What am i doing wrong?

string path = System.IO.Directory.GetCurrentDirectory();
EGIS.ShapeFileLib.ShapeFile shapeFile = new EGIS.ShapeFileLib.ShapeFile();
shapeFile.LoadFromFile(path + "\CD_VIC_06_imr.shp");
string[] record = shapeFile.GetRecords(shapeFile.RenderSettings.FieldIndex);

Thank you!

@MattiasWesterberg ,

If no FieldName is set or FieldName is not in the DBF file Field index returns -1.

When you debug does the shapeFile contain any values, if not then you might want to check the path for the shapefile. You can try to to hard code the path to the shapefile and try if it is able to read that.

Cheers,
