70002536 Using VdProControl with version 11

Summary

How can I use the VdProControl (VdProControl.dll) in my .NET projects with the VectorDraw version 11.x ?

Solution

You need to use the VDFCOMSetup to install VDF components in you system as you did with previous versions (10.x, 9.x etc) and also use the MergeModules that we provide to do the redistribution (read more about this in our readme_redis.htm document).
 
Also you need to have version 11 serial (which is different than previous versions) and authorize you system using the vdLic.exe for version 11 (see https://vdraw.com/support/vectordraw-utilities/ ). The vdLic.exe of version 11 should be placed inside the folder made from our setup that contains the VectorDraw.Professional.dll, and should be like : "C:\Program Files (x86)\VectorDraw\VectorDraw Drawing Framework\bin\”.
 
Also in your project’s Post-Build event add these lines:
 
    "$(VDRAWDEV)vdlic.exe" "$(targetpath)" -c
    copy "$(VDRAWDEV)VDrawI5.dll" "$(TargetDir)"
    copy "$(VDRAWDEV)VdrawPro5.dll" "$(TargetDir)"
 
Also if you haven’t you should check this : https://www.vdraw.com/support/readme-version-11/
