Activator.CreateInstance doesn't create second instance

[Slávek Rydval]

Hello,

I've got ASP.NET Core 2.1 app that is accessing EA repository. The code below works fine until I want to create another instance. When I use the code again, the current instance of EA is used, so I lose the connection to the first repository. Is there any witted solution to this problem?

Code: [Select]

EA.App eaApp = (EA.App)Activator.CreateInstance(Type.GetTypeFromProgID("EA.App", true));
eaApp.Repository.OpenFile(_repository);
EA.Element test = eaApp.Repository.GetElementByGuid(_testGUID);

You should be able to do something like this:

Code: [Select]

      EA.Repository r = new EA.Repository();
      r.OpenFile("c:\\eatest.eap");
