How to Call .NET Method with "out" argument

If I try this, there is no error, but the result is wrong

julia> n=Int32(0); T"System.Int32".TryParse("1", n); n
0

not sure how to include the 'out' parameter

CLRException: System.MissingMethodException with TagLibSharp dll

Hi,

I'm trying to set music tags using taglibsharp dll (downloadable from https://www.nuget.org/packages/TagLibSharp/ : download package, extract content -e.g. 7zip- and get dll from netstandard2.0).

I'm able to get and set (some) tags for .mp3 file. My code :

using DotNET
dllpath = "TagLibSharp.dll"
taglibsharp = T"System.Reflection.Assembly".LoadFrom(dllpath)
taglibfile = taglibsharp.GetType("TagLib.File")
filepath = "[PATH_TO_MP3_FILE]"
obj = taglibfile.Create(filepath)
println(obj.Tag.Title) # print title of the song
obj.Tag.Title = "Test Title"
obj.Save() # now if you check the title tag for the mp3 file, it has "Test Title"

However, there are some tags I can't write.

println(obj.Tag.Year) # I can access and get the Year tag
 obj.Tag.Year = 2010 # This lead to an error : 
ERROR: CLRException: System.MissingMethodException: Method 'TagLib.NonContainer.Tag.Year' not found.

I have the same behaviour for some other tags.
When I do the same operation in PowerShell, everything works fine and I can edit the tag. So I guess the issue is not linked with TagLibSharp ?

Is there something I am doing wrong ? Is this an actual issue with DotNET.jl ? Is there another way to edit the tag.

Any idea ?

Thanks

Example for dll

This package looks very interesting!
Can you provide an example on how to call methods from a DLL? If I have a Class Library with a single file:

namespace JuliaTest
{
    public class Foo
    {
        public double Bar(double x)
        {
            return 2 * x;
        }
    }
}

How do I call Bar from the generated dll? (Please correct me if this is the wrong way to generate the dll :-))

Thanks.

Long time convertion arrays

Hello,

Thanks again for this package!

When converting arrays from dotNET julia array, I am using the function collect. However, the function takes a long time to run for an array conversion:

arr = T"System.Array".CreateInstance(T"System.Byte", 1024 * 1240)
@time collect(arr) 
# 3.537783 seconds (38.09 M allocations: 1.335 GiB, 9.71% gc time)

Is there a faster way to convert the arrays?

Thanks,

add "using DotNET" to the examples code...

in the examples you supply is missing: "using DotNET"

C# call `GlobalDictInterface.Update` works fine and then it doesn't

the following works just fine:

But stress testing it it doesn't:

Hi,
Thank you for the package.
I manage to assemblies from a dll following the example in the readme file. Would you be able to tell me how I can list the functions in that dll and call it?
Thank you
Best regards

Calling methods with optional arguments

I'm not really familiar with the internals of the package (nor .Net to be honest), but would it be possible to enable calling methods without specifyin optional arguments?
I copied and modified an MWE from a previous issue:

C# SqlBulkCopy Class

I've been trying to use ODBC.jl to efficiently load data from my local computer onto a MS SQL Server. I am able to load data but it goes row-by-row so is not efficient. I haven't found any way to do a bulk insert using ODBC.jl. But I am aware of the SqlBulkCopy class in C#, although I do not know C# myself. Could the DotNET.jl package be used to do bulk insert to SQL Server by using the SqlBulkCopy class?

I downloaded .NET SDK 7.0 and I tried to reference the System.Data.SqlClient shown in the example code in the link above but I don't know what the right name should be for the "mscorlib" shown below.

julia> SqlClient = T"System.Data.SqlClient, mscorlib"

Any thoughts on what the right name is?

I also tried to do the reflection assembly approach. I searched my computer for System.Data.SqlClient.dll and found that several programs I have installed have a copy of this file so I pointed to one (installed by SSMS) and that loaded okay.

julia> T"System.Reflection.Assembly".LoadFrom(raw".....link to System.Data.SqlClient.dll...")

However, when I try to reference any of the functions shown in the example code for SqlBulkCopy in the link above I get errors.

Am I on the right track here or way off base? I apologize if I'm way off, but I am interested in trying to figure out how to efficiently load data into SQL Server from my local computer using Julia (maybe with the help of C# :-)! Appreciate any help/thoughts.

.NET Framework support

Hi,

Are there any plans to add .NET Framework support in the future? In particular I am interested in versions 4.7/4.8.

Is Framework not supported because it is not really cross-platform compatible and woud mainly work on windows? Or does it simply need some work to get it working? If so and since you've already done all this great work to support .NET Core, do you know what specifically is missing to support the Framework as well.

Would be nice to have a list of what is missing to make this happen.

Support for System.Double

It seems System.Double is currently not supported. I have a class that returns a 2D double matrix (System.Double[,]) that I would like to retrieve in Julia. Is this currently possible or does It need to be added to the package?

Trouble using external assemblies

I have been having trouble using external assemblies. Following the readme I have tried the following:

using DotNET
reader = T"System.Reflection.Assembly".LoadFrom(raw"/Users/n.t.wamsley/Projects/Julia_Testing/ThermoFisher.CommonCore.RawFileReader.dll")

Which returns

System.Reflection.RuntimeAssembly("ThermoFisher.CommonCore.RawFileReader, Version=5.0.0.88, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=1aef06afb5abd953")

How can I use methods and types from this library? For example in the RawFileReader library,
there is an attribute 'RawFileReaderAdapter' with a method 'FileFactory'. I would like to do something like

rawFile = RawFileReaderAdapter.FileFactory(filename)

rawFile then has methods I could call to return data from the file.

The problem is that if I enter the following

rawfilereaderadapter = reader.GetType("ThermoFisher.CommonCore.RawFileReader.RawFileReaderAdapter", true, true)
filefactory = rawfilereaderadapter.GetMethod("FileFactory")
filefactory.ReturnType
filefactory.ReturnTypeCustomAttributes

I get

ThermoFisher.CommonCore.RawFileReader.RawFileReaderAdapter
System.Reflection.RuntimeMethodInfo("ThermoFisher.CommonCore.Data.Interfaces.IRawDataExtended FileFactory(System.String)")
ThermoFisher.CommonCore.Data.Interfaces.IRawDataExtended
System.Reflection.RuntimeParameterInfo("ThermoFisher.CommonCore.Data.Interfaces.IRawDataExtended")

respectively. Now I need to invoke the FileFactory method.

julia> filepath = convert(CLRObject, "/Users/n.t.wamsley/Projects/SAGE_TESTING/MA4358_FFPE_HPVpos_01_071522.raw")
julia> rawfile = filefactory.Invoke("", [filepath])
ThermoFisher.CommonCore.RawFileReader.RawFileAccess("ThermoFisher.CommonCore.RawFileReader.RawFileAccess")
julia> rawfile.IsOpen
false

rawfile.IsOpen should be returning true. I have verified that the file path is correct. So I suspect I am passing methods incorrectly. I wasn't sure if you had any ideas about what I could be doing wrong?

Here is a snippet from the .xml file describing the types and methods defined in the dll

 <member name="T:ThermoFisher.CommonCore.RawFileReader.RawFileReaderAdapter">
            <summary>
            This static class contains factories to open raw files

        <member name="M:ThermoFisher.CommonCore.RawFileReader.RawFileReaderAdapter.FileFactory(System.String)">
            <summary>

            </summary>
            <param name="fileName">File to open</param>
            <returns>Interface to read data from file</returns>

Calling external library

Hello,

I am trying to use an external library called Kinesis from Thorlabs.

I can access the library but I run into an error because the software cannot find PresentationFramework

using DotNET

T"System.Reflection.Assembly".LoadFrom("C:\\Program Files\\Thorlabs\\Kinesis\\Thorlabs.MotionControl.DeviceManagerCLI.dll")

T"Thorlabs.MotionControl.DeviceManagerCLI.DeviceManagerCLI, Thorlabs.MotionControl.DeviceManagerCLI".BuildDeviceList()
serial_number = collect(T"Thorlabs.MotionControl.DeviceManagerCLI.DeviceManagerCLI, Thorlabs.MotionControl.DeviceManagerCLI".GetDeviceList())

dcservoCLI = T"System.Reflection.Assembly".LoadFrom("C:\\Program Files\\Thorlabs\\Kinesis\\Thorlabs.MotionControl.KCube.DCServoCLI.dll") [""]

@show serial_number # serial_number = ["27000577"]
kcube = dcservoCLI.GetType("Thorlabs.MotionControl.KCube.DCServoCLI.KCubeDCServo")
aux = convert(CLRObject, serial_number[1])
create = kcube.CreateKCubeDCServo(aux)

I get the following error:

VSCode crashes with DotNET

DotNET never crashes when I use it in the terminal but it does when I use it in VSCode.
To reproduce the issue just type using DotNET in the julia REPL in VSCode (windows).
Linked issue julia-vscode/julia-vscode#1777
I am not sure whether the issue is coming from vscode or DotNET.
Thank you

How to Set a Class Property?

If I try the following

myassembly = T"System.Reflection.Assembly".LoadFrom(dllfile)
myclass = T"MyAssebmly.MyClass, myassembly ".new()
myclass.StringProperty = "test"

I get the error:
ERROR: type CLRObject has no field StringProperty

Is there another way I can assign class properties?
