Topic: vla-getinterfaceobject error: Automation Error. Problem in loading application.

[jpucilow]

This code fragment runs as expected in AutoCAD 2009 with Raster Design 2009 on one XP PC. It fails in AutoCAD 2012 with Raster Design 2012 on another XP PC:

(vla-getinterfaceobject (vlax-get-acad-object) "CADOverlay.AecImageObjectList")
; error: Automation Error. Problem in loading application

It appears the string "CADOverlay.AecImageObjectList" is not valid for 2012. I don't see CADOverlay.* entries in the registry of the 2012 pc like I see on the 2009 pc. What's my string for 2012?

did anyone get find a solution? I'm having the same difficulty:

(vlax-invoke-method (vlax-get-acad-object) 'GetInterfaceObject "CADOverlay.AecImageObjectList")

doesn't work in 2012 /13 or 14 ?

The COM reference CADOverlay definitely exists, I checked in VS but still no joy?
