[Charltsing]

Magick.NET version

14.5.0

Environment (Operating system, version and so on)

Windows 11 Pro Insider Preview(11.0.26040), x64

Description

I use Magick.net 14.5.0 to develop my software , One of my user report it Causing my soft crashes when it start up On his PC ,

it is my code when crash: ImageMagick.ResourceLimits.LimitMemory(new ImageMagick.Percentage(80))

Windows Event Viewer report: System.DllNotFoundException

Microsoft Visual C++ 2015-2022 Redistributable (x64) - 14.42.34438 installed.

My user copy the old Magick.Native-Q16-x64.DLL ( 7.1.1.35) to my soft directory instead of 7.1.1.44 , it work fine.

Is the latest version of Magick.Native-Q16-x64.DLL missing any dependencies in Windows 11 ?
Or maybe I did something wrong ?

I tested the software on Windows 10 22h2 Pro and it worked fine.

Here are the details of the error message in Windows Event Viewer:

It looks like the native library is not on their system? Is it possible there is an issue in your distribution? In the past I have also use Dependency Walker to validate issues with the library. It feels a bit odd that it works in Windows 10 but not on Windows 11. I would advise you to create a VM that is similar to their environment to check if you can reproduce the issue of that user.

I don't have the conditions to create the corresponding virtual machine

I have only received one report. This crash might be related to the version of Windows 11 ?
Others have reported that it work fine on their Windows 11.

Perhaps the Magick.Native-Q16-x64.DLL 7.1.1.44 is missing something.
can you tell me what its dependence is ? the version of vc or ...

The DLLNotFoundException doesn't look like a missing dependency. Did you check that everything was correctly deployed to that machine?

I don't have access to user computers. If it's a deployment issue, why is version 7.1.1.35 work fine ?

my user test ImageGlass Magick.Native-Q16-HDRI-OpenMP-x64.dll 7.1.1.41(ImageGlass_9.2.0.1208_x64) , it work fine.
but i rebuild ImageGlass with Magick.Native-Q16-x64.dll 7.1.1.44, it can not start up.

I am considering testing more native library versions

[dlemstra]

I really suspect that using a different dll changes something in your packaging and that breaks it.

my user test result:

Magick.Net , Magick.Native-Q16-x64, status
14.5.0 , 7.1.1.44 , crash
14.3.0 , 7.1.1.43 , crash
14.2.0 , 7.1.1.41 , ok
14.1.0 , 7.1.1.40 , ok
14.0.0 , 7.1.1.38 , ok
13.10.0 , 7.1.1.35 , ok

only copy Magick.Native-Q16-x64.dll to installed directory

test code:

[System.Runtime.CompilerServices.MethodImpl(System.Runtime.CompilerServices.MethodImplOptions.NoOptimization | System.Runtime.CompilerServices.MethodImplOptions.NoInlining)]
[System.Runtime.ExceptionServices.HandleProcessCorruptedStateExceptions] 
[System.Security.SecurityCritical]
private void SetMagickLimitMemory()
{    
        try
        {
            ImageMagick.ResourceLimits.LimitMemory(new ImageMagick.Percentage(80));
        }
        catch (Exception e)
        {
            Log.Error($"{e.Message}");
            Log.Error($"StackTrace:{e.StackTrace}");
        }  
}

log error is：

“NativeResourceLimits” , The type initializer to throw an exception

StackTrace：
ImageMagick.ResourceLimits.NativeResourceLimits.LimitMemory(Double percentage)
ImageMagick.ResourceLimits.LimitMemory(Percentage percentage)

Maybe Windows11 Profession Insider Preview(11.0.26040) is missing some DLL
or 7.1.1.43/44 is missing some DLL.

Windows 11 24H2 work fine.
