I'm using the Windows ImageMagickObject interface with VB6 on Vista Business SP1 32-bit.

The problem I am seeing is that using the reference is no longer working the way it used to.

On 6.3.6, both Command1 and Command2 work.
On 6.5.4, only Command2 works. Command1 returns
-2147418113:Method 'Identify' of object 'IMagickImage' failed
(This looks a little strange with the I in front of MagickImage)

In short, it looks like the early binding is no longer working, but late binding is. Is this working as intended?

Thanks,
Gary

Code: Select all

Private Sub Command1_Click()
On Error GoTo ErrorHandler
Dim omi As New ImageMagickObject.MagickImage
    MsgBox (omi.Identify("-format", "%m", "rose:"))    
Exit Sub
ErrorHandler:
    MsgBox (Err.Number & ":" & Err.Description)
End Sub

Private Sub Command2_Click()
On Error GoTo ErrorHandler
Dim omi
    Set omi = New ImageMagickObject.MagickImage
    MsgBox (omi.Identify("-format", "%m", "rose:"))   
Exit Sub
ErrorHandler:
    MsgBox (Err.Number & ":" & Err.Description)
End Sub

Edit: corrected subject

Others continue to get this error. Magick, what other details do you need?

Thanks,
Gary

We tried your script (with cscript) and it got a syntax error. Can you post a complete script that will compile and run. Note, we are not VB developers so any additional help to reproduce the problem is welcome.

Since VBScript does not have early binding (e.g you cannot do "Dim omi As New ImageMagickObject.MagickImage" -- only "Dim omi"), you will not be able to reproduce this with VBScript.

I tried this with MS VB 2008 Express Edition (free), but it worked fine.

I'm sure there are quite a few changes between the two version numbers I mentioned, but were there any changes in software or the way the .dll is being created?
