Not sure anyone is interested, but after a lot of research on line it appears
that 64bit version of Powershell cannot call a 32bit dl and vice versa. This
does not match the results I am getting with v17R3.
In my previous post I left out that . 4D client is running on a 64bit Windows
10 install, so in all my tests the system contained both a SysWow64 folder
containing the 32bit version of PowerShell and a System32 folder containing the
64bit version of PowerShell.
The following is more descriptive of my testing….
4D OSServer & Client 4DServer 4DClient
PowerShell DLL Result
v17R3 64 64
32 32 32 OK
v17R3. 64 64
32 64 32 OK. //According to
my research this should not work!
V17R3 64 64
64 32 32 OK
V17R3 64 64
64 64 32 X
//According to my research this is the expected behavior
Why is the 32 bit 4D client working when it uses 64bit PowerShell?
Hard to find answers for this. There is no forum that has folks that are expert
in 4D, PowerShell, and Quickbooks.I am going to post my question on Stack
Exchange, Intuit SDK forum, and the Powershell forum and see what I get.
If you got this far, thanks for reading. If I get an answer I will post it here.
