In Visual Components 4.4, we’ve introduced a new feature, called CAD Attribute Reader, that reads your 2D CAD data and converts them into 3D layouts.
Attached you can find CAD Attribute Reader.zip file CAD Attribute Reader.zip (973.1 KB). The file has an example 2D drawing, addon’s, code sample and instructions to use the addon.
I faced similar kind of issue last time, I am still searching for some proper solution
Is it obsolete in version 4.2?
The CAD attribute reader requires VC version 4.4, or later, to operate.
Heyaa!
Is it possible that the DWG Attribute Reader is not working anymore in 4.5?
I get the following message when I press on the attribute reader button:
System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly ‘System.Text.Encodings.Web, Version=5.0.0.1, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=cc7b13ffcd2ddd51’ or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.
I copied both dlls (Plugin.ReadDWGBlock.dll and System.Text.Json.dll).
Any ideas what I’m doing wrong?
Best

@ProLean zip file updated. The file was missing the required dll. Add System.Text.Encodings.Web.dll to the installation folder and test again
Hi @Popeye, thanks for adding the dll.
Unfortunately I still get the error message.
I noticed the dll you attached to the ZIP is from .NET 6.0.
The error message however is complaining about the missing dll with Version 5.0.0.1.
I tried to install .NET 5.0 however it didn’t help either.
How did you get it to work on your side?
I just tried with a clean install, copied the 3 DLL files to the installation folder. It worked with the example dwg file.
I just tried to install, and nothing is working. I have a few questions:
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Update: Turns out I was moving the files to the wrong folder. The folder that I needed to use was:
C:\Program Files\Visual Components\Visual Components <professional/premium version number>
Now I’m having a problem with System.Text.Encodings.Web.DLL
The My Commands folder is only for python addons.
.NET addons (.dll) should be placed in the VC installation folder in Program Files.
@Este Hello
I follow the steps
Got it working by copying a version 5.0 System.Text.Encodings.Web.dll with the same public key as mentioned in the error message (cc7b13ffcd2ddd51) into Visual Components root.
So it seems like the version is the issue.
@Este I guess even though you tested with a fresh VC installation, it might be that the required version 5.0 dll was somewhere available on your PC where Visual Components has access to. Is that possible?

WRN: Assembly binding logging is turned OFF.
To enable assembly bind failure logging, set the registry value [HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Fusion!EnableLog] (DWORD) to 1.
Note: There is some performance penalty associated with assembly bind failure logging.
To turn this feature off, remove the registry value [HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Fusion!EnableLog].
Ireceived this message how did you resolve it
