Same as bug 778995?
Comment 2 Michael Schumacher 2017-03-01 08:13:21 UTC
Let's assume it is.

I do not think so.
Ther Version 2.8.18 worked fine, and the experimental version 2.9 works as well very fine.
The error in Gimp 2.8.20 says that the entry point could not be found in glib so and so.
After trying to open a file the gimp message box says :

Plug-in crashed: "file-pdf-load.exe"
(C:\Program Files\GIMP 2\lib\gimp\2.0\plug-ins\file-pdf-load.exe)

The dying plug-in may have messed up GIMP's internal state. You may want to save your images and restart GIMP to be on the safe side.

Opening 'C:\Users\JDBreuer\Desktop\CPU-Kühler wechseln_  PC-WELT.pdf' failed:

Procedure 'file-pdf-load' returned no return values

So the addon seems to load, but the dll call out of the addon is faulty. Strange that the 2.9 version ist working super!

Have you read the duplication target bug report, and are you familiar with the term 'DLL hell'?
Comment 5 JD Breuer 2017-03-02 15:28:24 UTC
I understand what you want to tell me.
My hint is that gimp vor win 64 2.8.18 imported pdf super,
also 2.9 experimental has no problem,
but in 2.8.18 this pdf import does not work!

So, what changed between those versions?
Did the third party exe change and calls use the wrong entry point in the dll or was the dll changed?
