Eikon API .NET 64 vs 32 bit

Hi,

I am using the ThomsonReuters.Desktop.SDK.DataAccess.Signed.x64 nuget package in my .NET app. My app is targeted to build as a 64bit version.

When I try to subscribe to data I keep getting a "The operation has timed out" error message.

When I change and run my application as a 32 bit version is works fine with the 64bit nuget package ThomsonReuters.Desktop.SDK.DataAccess.Signed.x64.

Why does it not work when I run it as 64bit?

I assume this is communication over COM so do I need to use the ThomsonReuters.Desktop.SDK.DataAccess.Signed nuget version and target my application as 32bit instead?

Thanks

Hi,

Sorry, been away for a while. I have not fully resolved the issue as I have not had the time to go back to this. From my understanding there appear to be 2 issues:

1. The dependencies are incorrectly set in the nuget package. This is evident each time I build my solution. The following 2 dlls are not copied to the build output location: Common.Logging.dll and protobuf-net.dll. All other dlls are copied fine. I have noticed other users reporting similar issues in this space. For me its these 2 dlls only.

2. The use of this API in a Windows Service appears not to be possible for some reason. I have had Evgenij Kovalev from Refinitiv helping me with this and unfortunately we were unable to get it working. The issue in point 1 was discovered recently so I will need to go back to the Windows Service solution and check if the missing dlls caused the problem there too.

Hope this helps.

Thanks

Emir

Hi, I would be interested in this as well. Or how else could I use the API in a 64 bit environment?

Simply install 64-bit SDK from NuGet per instructions in this tutorial.

ok, and that should work in a 64 bit application? Since I remember above problem, too. that when I used a 64 bit application with the 64bit sdk, that i get above errors.

Are you suggesting this has been fixed?

I'm afraid I have no knowledge of the problem reported on this thread by @emir.subasic. We never got a chance to investigate it because we could never get any details from the reporter. On my end I haven't had any problems using 64-bit Eikon .NET SDK, and I know numerous users who used it successfully. If you have a way of reproducing the problem, I'd be very keen to look into it.
