The poppler package installed is poppler-win32-x86-64 which matches the
64-bitness of my Racket.
Not sure precisely which mechanism you had in mind for trying number 2. But
I tried editing ffi.rkt in the pdf-read package as follows:
; original: (define-ffi-definer define-poppler (ffi-lib "libpoppler-glib"))
; (A) tried adding version:
; (define-ffi-definer define-poppler (ffi-lib "libpoppler-glib" "8"))
; (B) tried absolute path:
(define-ffi-definer define-poppler (ffi-lib
"C:\\Users\\Joel\\AppData\\Roaming\\Racket\\6.12\\lib\\libpoppler-glib-8"))
Both edits return basically the same error as before:
(A) ffi-lib: couldn't open "libpoppler-glib-8.dll" (The specified module
could not be found.; errid=126)
(B) ffi-lib: couldn't open
"C:\\Users\\Joel\\AppData\\Roaming\\Racket\\6.12\\lib\\libpoppler-glib-8.dll"
(The specified module could not be found.; errid=126)
For testing I did:
#lang racket
(require ffi/unsafe setup/dirs); pdf-read)
(define paths (get-lib-search-dirs))
(define (poppler? path)
(string-contains? (path->string path) "poppler-glib"))
(flatten (for/list ([p paths])
(find-files poppler? p)))
Produces:
'(#<path:C:\Users\Joel\AppData\Roaming\Racket\6.12\lib\libpoppler-glib-8.dll>)
So it should be able to find the dll at least. Perhaps it's just not able
to load it for some other reason.
