Need help figuring out errors with .NET in 10.1

PatrickGross — Fri, 28 Dec 2012 16:43:22 GMT

This morning, I opened up a .NET project I created in VB 2010 Express over a year ago. I upgraded to a new machine and also from 10 to 10.1. I noticed that the licensing procedure has changed, but I can't figure out a few things:

1) Why would ESRI.ArcGIS.esriSystem.dll not be in my DotNet folder?
2) Is my method for initializing the license the wrong way to do it?

I'm using this code to retrieve the coordinates of the corners of a set of rasters. I tried searching for information on how to initialize a license for a couple hours now with no solid reason as to why my reference to ESRI.ArcGIS.esriSystem won't work.

Thanks in advance!

ESRI.ArcGIS.System.dll is the assembly that you seek.

In a test project, I have ESRI.ArcGIS.System as a reference and can add the line

Dim test As New ESRI.ArcGIS.esriSystem.AoInitialize

10.1 has made changes with the enumerators. See What's New in the Help

[TABLE="class: dtTable"] Prior to 10.1 10.1 esriLicenseProductCodeArcView esriLicenseProductCodeBasic esriLicenseProductCodeArcEditor esriLicenseProductCodeStandard esriLicenseProductCodeArcInfo esriLicenseProductCodeAdvanced

ESRI.ArcGIS.System.dll is the assembly that you seek.

When I declare "Imports ESRI.ArcGIS.System" at the top, VB 2010 gives me the following error:

"Namespace or type specified in the Imports 'ESRI.ArcGIS.System' doesn't contain any public member or cannot be found. Make sure the namespace or the type is defined and contains at least one public member. Make sure the imported element name doesn't use any aliases."

I checked my references and it's listed in there, so I don't know what setting I need to change.

I think I found the culprit.

So, how do I repair these references?

Remove them and add them back again using "Add ArcGIS Reference"

Thanks, y'all! I figured it was some dumb mistake by me. :rolleyes:
