The type initializer for 'CADImport.Export.CADExportFrame' threw an exception.

I have written a small amount of test code to simply open a DWG file and then save it - Essentially making a copy. I wanted to ensure that I am not causing any issue by editting the file, so it's very simple:

Code: Select all

        void SaveFile()
        {
            CADImage cadImage = CADImage.CreateImageByExtension(selectFile.FileName);
            cadImage.LoadFromFile(selectFile.FileName);
            CADtoDWG.SaveAsDWG(cadImage, Path.Combine(Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.MyDocuments), "output.dwg"));
        }

I am using .NET (version 8.0) windows forms with CAD.NET 15.0.0.57290.

When I call this function, the following error is presented:

The type initializer for 'CADImport.Export.CADExportFrame' threw an exception.

It's a shame, because the library has some great tools - But I cannot save the file. Is there a known issue around saving .DWG files?
