TwainDemo sample code of Leadtools is not working if I run as 64bit. Application runs fine but when click on "SCAN" button then nothing happens. This sample code works fine if I execute as 32bit

Complete issue postd on stackoverflow

Any suggestion?

Alexblack,

Since the sample demo opens your twain devices scan dialog, it seems that the issue may stem from the drivers themselves. Have you downloaded the Twacker utility from the Twain website to test with? Usually if a scanner works with Twacker, it should work with LEADTOOLS. If the scanner has the same problem in Twacker, then the problem lies in the Twain driver and you should contact the manufacturer.

Here is the link to the Twacker utility:
http://www.twain.org/specification/

Please download this utility to test with and let us know your results.

how is this fixed? I am facing the same issue? I read on the stackflow link saying updating TWAIN driver. How exactly to do that?

You can update your Twain drivers by downloading them from the hardware manufacturers website.

The Twain driver bitness must match the bitness of the our libraries. Our x64 libraries are incompatible with x86 Twain drivers. You must download the x64 Twain driver from the manufacturers website or use our x86 libraries.

Hi Joe, We have many users using scanners that manufactures won't provide 64 bit twain driver at all. So a solution from Leadtools will be a huge help. Please raise this up..

You can use the TWAIN Thunk Server to load 32-bit TWAIN drivers in a 64-bit application.

To do this, you need to specify the UseThunkServer flag in the TwainSession.Startup method:

https://www.leadtools.co...wainsession-startup.html

Code:

_twainSession.Startup(this.Handle, "LEAD Technologies, Inc.", "LEAD Test Applications", "Version 1.0", "TWAIN Test Application", TwainStartupFlags.UseThunkServer);

Here is some more information on using the Using the LEADTOOLS THUNK Utility with TWAIN:

Please let us know if you have any further questions or run into any issues regarding this
