x64 Support

[samkelleher]

In the readme, you wrote that an x64 compile of WkHtmlToPdf 'worked pretty flawlessly'; was there anything broken/preventative from using this in a x64 environment if it worked?

Or was it just convenience, i.e., to be able to just drop in the WkHtmlToPdf lib as built rather than go off and recompile in x64.

The underliying component used (libwkhtmltdf) simply does not work fine when build for 64 bits.

Hi everyone! Has anything changed since the last time you tried? Are we able to build a 64 bit Windows version of the WkHtmlToPdf library?

Unfortunately, libwkhtmltox doesn't have a readily available x64 version out. If you'd like to dig into the matter further, you should check out https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/wkhtmltopdf-dev or https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/wkhtmltopdf-general.

It looks like there's a 64-bit windows download available on http://wkhtmltopdf.org/ now. Does that impact the status of this issue?

[pruiz]

Yeah ;)

I'm just a bit out-of-time now, but incorporating x64 it's on my todo along with a minor refactor of how each binary dependency get's referenced/loaded by wkhtmltoxsharp.

So I hope to be able to provide something anytime soon.

Regards Pablo

Pablo pruiz, waiting for the Win64 NuGet bundle! Thank you and keep up the great work!

I added wrapper for x64. It is working for me for more than 2 weeks. I haven't noticed any new problems or exceptions during this period. Sadly old periodic exception: System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. ---> System.AccessViolationException: Attempted to read or write protected memory

which occured on x32 version occurs at the same rate.

Current configuration: Host: Windows Service with Quartz.Net scheduler OS: Windows Server 2008 R2 Pdf Generator: MultiplexingHtmlToPdfConverter

Hi Eugeniu,

The only issue I see with your pull-req is that is is using a different version of wkhtmltox.dll than the one used by other native bundles.. And I would like to keep all them in sync as to avoid different behaviours on each arch.

Provided bundle has on problem which I've noticed. Image tags are not rendered in resulting pdf. In the nugget package for x64 this problem occur too. Do you have any idea what might be the cause for this? Maybe some missing dlls that should be embedded along with wkhtml library?

[alexminza]

Hi @pruiz - do you have ideas on the issue of missing images in x64? Thanks!

[pruiz]

I am closing this issue, as x64 support has been available for a while now.
