<p dir="ltr">Maybe it is only the calling convention which fails.</p>
<p dir="ltr">To the other question, use DependencyWalker to see what functions those DLLs export and what the signatures are of them.<br>

<br>
Thanks for the answer, but this does not help. I copied the dll already manually or automatically with the solution, but on runtime, the dll are not found.<br>
<br>
The 20 dlls are<br>
<br>
iconv.dll<br>
libcairo-2.dll<br>
libffi-6.dll<br>
libgdk_pixbuf-2.0-0.dll<br>
libgio-2.0-0.dll<br>
libglib-2.0-0.dll<br>
libgmodule-2.0-0.dll<br>
libgobject-2.0-0.dll<br>
libgthread-2.0-0.dll<br>
libintl-8.dll<br>
libjpeg-62.dll<br>
libopenjp2.dll<br>
libopenslide-0.dll<br>
libpixman-1-0.dll<br>
libpng16-16.dll<br>
libsqlite3-0.dll<br>
libtiff-5.dll<br>
libxml2-2.dll<br>
openslide-jni.dll<br>
zlib1.dll<br>
<br>
Maybe I miss one?<br>
<br>
Another question related to that is:<br>
<br>
How can I DllImport those libraries? E.g. which function provides libcairo-2.dll?<br>
<br>
[DllImport("libcairo-2.dll")]<br>
private static extern whichFunctionshouldBeHere(WhichArguments);<br>
<br>
<br>
Best,<br>

Hi Peter,<br>
<br>
I'm not very familiar with Visual Studio, but you may be able to fix this by having it copy the DLLs for you:<br>
<br>
    <a href="http://stackoverflow.com/a/35960868/" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://stackoverflow.com/a/35960868/</a><br>
    <a href="http://stackoverflow.com/a/5107759/" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://stackoverflow.com/a/5107759/</a><br>
<br>
Does that work?<br>
