I'm trying to get the TCP service running and the C# client code appears to be corrupted from the install package

The file is:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Quick PDF Library\TCP\Client\CSharp\QuickPDFTCP0812.cs

All of the void return values are litterally "Error". For example starting on line 815 it says:

ErrorDAExtractPageText(int FileHandle, int PageRef, int Options)
        {
            byte[] P = EI(FileHandle);
            P = E(P, EI(PageRef));
            P = E(P, EI(Options));
        }

There are dozens of these Errors.

I want to get this working asap. Should I change these to:
Public void?

Thanks,
Dan

I'm also getting errors with type IntPtr being passed into BitConverter.GetBytes. The error is: The best overloaded method match for 'System.BitConverter.GetBytes(double)' has some invalid arguments.

For example starting on ln 50:
        private byte[] EC(IntPtr Value)
        {
            ParmCount++;
            ParmTypes += "C";
            return BitConverter.GetBytes(Value);
        }

I have to change the return to:
return BitConverter.GetBytes((long)Value);

Is this a correct fix? I don't understand this code well enough to know all the implications.

Btw, I'm using VS 2010 in windows 7 64 bit with .Net 4.0.

Thanks,
Dan

I also found the need to change return on ln 170 from:

return 0;

to:

return (IntPtr)0;

Is this a correct fix?

Thanks for the feedback. We are fixing and testing the import file.

Do you have any timeframe when this will be ready?

We are looking into the problem. It seems that there is a bit of work required to get it working. It probably hasn't been working since the 8.11 release and no one has noticed.

The need for the TCP/IP has been considerably reduced now that we have released the full 64bit version of QPL.

Do you have a particular need or requirement for the TCP/IP version ? We are wondering how many people are actually using the TCP/IP version these days ?

I would actually prefer to get the dll version working but am having problems so since I already had the TCP version working I tried to upgrade that.

I'm going to start a new thread with my issues trying to get the dll version working.

Thanks,
Dan
