Mailing List Archive: Unable to load dll

Hi, there

I've built up a win32 application to remotely import a public key to verify a digital signature. Everything works fine in a Windows 10 machine. Yet, as I was trying this win32 app when the gpg4win-3.1.16 was uninstalled, it didn't work. The error message is "Unable to load DLL '.....'" The specified module could not be found. I got the same error message even if I copied the libgpgme.imp and libgpgme-11.dll to be in the same folder as the win32 app.

I've downloaded the depends.exe and found out that there are hundreds of API-MS_WIN dll, and another 50 various other dlls missing for my win32 app.

Has anybody experienced similar thing ? How do I fix this ?

Another small issue is that the remotely listing and importing public key is a very slow process. It usually takes about one minute or so to complete. Is this a normal thing ?

Thanks.

Regards,
Eric

It seems that your application was using GPGME, which is the official
API for the GnuPG crypto engine. For it to work, you'd need Gpg4win or another
build of GnuPG and GPGME for windows installed. There is GnuPG only build for
Windows, but as I remember it may not include GPGME.

I am not e what you mean by remotely. If you are accessing a keyserver or
using WKD, it first depends on the speed of the server response and the
network. Both should be fast. GnuPG then may need to compute the trust
relations and this can take a bit, if there are many. Before you can make
this faster, I'd try to find out where the time is spend.
