C# and InpOut32.dll

[KS]

I have installed this InpOut32.dll for programming the parr.port and I have
tested the installation with the included testprogram and it works fine.

Now I will try my own program - and I add only ONE statement - just to try -
but I get an exception.

When I'm commenting the statement out - I gets NO exception - so what's
wrong - here is the exception:

System.Security.SecurityException was unhandled
Message="System.Security.Permissions.SecurityPermission"
Source="KSDivHead"
StackTrace:

Hi,

I have installed this InpOut32.dll for programming the parr.port and I have
tested the installation with the included testprogram and it works fine.

Now I will try my own program - and I add only ONE statement - just to
try - but I get an exception.

When I'm commenting the statement out - I gets NO exception - so what's
wrong - here is the exception:

System.Security.SecurityException was unhandled
Message="System.Security.Permissions.SecurityPermission"
Source="KSDivHead"

Obviously you have some security issue going on. did you check the docs of
the dll to see if yor program needs to request any permission?

Did you check the InnerException of the exception you are getting? In some
instances you get a more especific error there.

Tell us what statement you add. (...and I add only ONE statement ) and
please show us some code.
From the stack trace we can only conclude that you have a security issue
(are you sure you are running in full trust?), however it's not clear what
the added statement has to do with this!

I'm only trying to output a value to the parr. port with

PortAccess.Output (Address, 0);

And Address has the value 378.

I'm NOT sure I'm running in full trust - what is that ?

You said ...and I add only ONE statement, is this the statement that you
added to the "included testprogram "??
Are you sure that this is the statement that throws the exception?
What else do you have in your Form1_Load method?
Why not trying using a simple console application and post this instead of a
Forms application?

And Address has the value 378.

I'm NOT sure I'm running in full trust - what is that ?

"full trust" relates to Code Access Security, please consult MSDN for
details.
Are you loading this exe from a local drive?

Are you loading this exe from a local drive?

The only think wrong was I had to place my project on the local drive !

Thanks !
