Lumenworks CsvReader Exception

Question

I need to parse a csv file and import it into a oracle database table. I use the Lumenworks Framework with this code:

using (CsvReader csv = new CsvReader(new StreamReader(sFile), true))
{
     Console.WriteLine("test3");                       
}                                             

But if I run the code, the following exception appears:

Application: Application.exe

Framework Version: v4.0.30319

Description: The process was terminated due to an unhandled exception.

Exception Info: System.IO.FileNotFoundException

Stack: at Application.Program.Main(System.String[])

But the weird thing is, if I only execute the new Streamreader(sFile) part and write this on the console, no exception appears. I already debugged the sFile and this is a valid path.

Answer 1

If you have a new StreamReader(sFIle); and the file does not exists it will throw an exception. The path could be a valid formatted path, but if the file is not there then the exception thrown, FileNotFoundException , would make perfect sense.

Check to make sure that the file exists at the specified path before trying to open the stream.

if (File.Exists(sFIle) {
    using (CsvReader csv = new CsvReader(new StreamReader(sFile), true)) {
         Console.WriteLine("test3");                       
    } 
}

What a mistake. After hours I realized that the Lumenworks.dll wasn't copied to the application.exe..

Another exception than System.IO.FileNotFoundException would be truly grateful.
