Question

When I run my application compiled as x86 I get:

“the specified module could not be found”

It works fine compiled as x64. The application can be downloaded from codeproject. I need to run this class library inside a 32-bit app.

Errors I see in depency walker:

Error: Modules with different CPU types were found. Warning: At least
one delay-load dependency module was not found. Warning: At least one
module has an unresolved import due to a missing export function in a
delay-load dependent module.

Further info in dependency walker…

IESHIMS.DLL not found

This code causes the problem:

        s_MouseHookHandle = SetWindowsHookEx(
            WH_MOUSE_LL,
            s_MouseDelegate,
            Marshal.GetHINSTANCE(
                Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetModules()[0]),
            0);

Later down the road…

int errorCode = Marshal.GetLastWin32Error();//error code comes back as 126

Any idea how to run inside a 32 bit app?

Add an x86 solution platform via the configuration manager, and change the Platform to x86 for both projects. “Processing Global Mouse and Keyboard Hooks in C#” works fine as x86.
