dear Readers,
thank you for taking the time to help me out. We are upgrading an ArcObjects VB. NET application written in 2008; it was periodically upgraded to the enterprise approved ArcGIS.
Currently we are upgrading that ArcObjects Toolbar from ArcGIS 10.3 to 10.5. (build 10.5.0.6491).
System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException occurred
HResult=0x80040111
Message=Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID {FABC30FB-D273-11D2-9F36-00C04F6BC61A} failed due to the following error: 80040111 ClassFactory cannot supply requested class (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80040111 (CLASS_E_CLASSNOTAVAILABLE)).
Dim pApplication As ESRI.ArcGIS.Framework.IApplication = Nothing
Dim pAppROT As IAppROT = New AppROT()
It failed at New AppROT() declaration with the above error.
I know it is a namespace issue and any help will be greatly appreciated. In the meanwhile, I will be trying to 'fix' it by trying some changes...
thanks and regards
