    Great article about inserting QR Codes in SSRS reports. One problem with that approach is the need to install the dll into the system GAC. You can avoid that by registering the dll in the Visual Studio RSPreviewPolicy.config file with an entry similar to this one:

    <CodeGroup class="UnionCodeGroup" version="1" PermissionSetName="FullTrust" Name="MyQRCode" Description="This code group grants FullTrust to MyQRCode assembly.">  <IMembershipCondition class="StrongNameMembershipCondition" version="1" PublicKeyBlob="000000............0000000" /></CodeGroup>

    The PublicKeyBlob for your dll assembly can be obtained in this way 

    Then that same entry must be added to the SSRS rssrvpolicy.config file
    These settings should rid off the need of registering the dll into the GAC.
    For more advanced barcode options as well as another 2D types like DataMatrix, DotCode, PDF417, etc and for a visual barcode CRI you might try other alternatives like BP for SSRS

    Unfortunately it doesn't appear that they have a C# version.

    That means that you will have to compile the source code yourself. I supplied the source code I used to compile it in the attached resource file.

    I'm sure I'm doing something wrong, but I cannot get the QRCoderImageToByteArray.dll file.

    I am unable to find the QRCoderResources.zip file, (along with the StronglyNamedPartiallyTrustedCallersDLLs folder). I've tried using the Compile.bat batch file, which did create the QRCoder.dll file, but not QRCoderImageToByteArray.dll.

    Any ideas on how I can resolve this?

    Not with this solution. I ended up generating QR codes via https://api.qrserver.com.

    SQL Server Central hasn't restored the resource files after the conversion yet.

    I scoured my hard drive and found copies of QRCoder.dll and QRCoderImageToByteArray.dll that I think are the ones I included with the article. I uploaded them to my google drive. Here is the link:

    Looks like they just restored the resource file to the article.

    We are getting the same error...

    Error while loading code module: ‘QRCoderImageToByteArray, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=3016ec4525f0585e’. Details: Could not load file or assembly 'QRCoderImageToByteArray, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=3016ec4525f0585e' or one of its dependencies. This assembly is built by a runtime newer than the currently loaded runtime and cannot be loaded.

    How do we correctly compile the source code?

    Thanks for your help!
