EF Core migrations fails after adding this package about wkhtmltopdf-dotnet

[HakanL]

Ah, perfect, thanks for the quick feedback @andbjer ! Please use the new repo , version 1.2 which includes this fix.

Please see if the fix I just pushed solved the issue.

What's the easiest way for me to test this?

I've pulled down the code from the repository and added the project to my solution. I added every runtime manually in the same folder structure as it is listed in DinkToPdf.csproj:

    <None Include="runtimes\linux-x64\native\libwkhtmltox.so" Pack="true" PackagePath="runtimes\linux-x64\native" />
    <None Include="runtimes\linux-x86\native\libwkhtmltox.so" Pack="true" PackagePath="runtimes\linux-x86\native" />
    <None Include="runtimes\osx-x64\native\libwkhtmltox.dylib" Pack="true" PackagePath="runtimes\osx-x64\native" />
    <None Include="runtimes\win-x64\native\wkhtmltox.dll" Pack="true" PackagePath="runtimes\win-x64\native" />
    <None Include="runtimes\win-x86\native\wkhtmltox.dll" Pack="true" PackagePath="runtimes\win-x86\native" />

Now I am getting this error when i try to generate a PDF:

System.DllNotFoundException: Unable to load shared library 'wkhtmltox' or one of its dependencies

You probably shouldn't even be loading this in EFCore migration.

Change your DI definition to be lazy:

services.AddSingleton<IConverter>(x => new SynchronizedConverter(new PdfTools()))

I uploaded a pre-release to NuGet, try that. https://www.nuget.org/packages/Haukcode.DinkToPdf/1.1.3-test-dispose-fix

Tested the pre-release and migrations is working again. Thank you!

I also tested the suggestion by @adamhathcock before upgrading to the pre-release. This also solved my problem.

Thank you both!
