AutoCAD-Plugin : C# : (System.Data.SQlite + SpatialiteSharp) ERROR in AutoCAD 2016/2017 - system.data.sqlite

Question

1) My Environment:
. Windows 10 Pro (licensed) - 64 bits - 8GB Ram;
. AutoCAD (licensed) 2014/2015/2016/2017 64 bits (all HOTFIX and SERVICEPACK installed);
. Visual Studio 2010 Express Edition (for AutoCAD 2014);
. Visual Studio 2013 (for AutoCAD 2015/2016/2017);
. Antivirus : only Windows Defender.
2) Visual Studio 2013 Solution
nuGet packages:
System.Data.SQLite
SpatialiteSharp
Target: .NET 4.5
3) Database used for this test
. Database name : 'dbtest.sqlite', download here and save to c:\temp
. Database table : 'tb_test'
. Database table tb_test fields:
featureName : TEXT
geometry : POLYGON
4) Code Running on AutoCAD 2015 : OK
In Visual Lisp, I call dbQuery .NET method (file MyCommands.cs):
(setq result_query (dbQuery))
and will return a list:
[0] "FeatureName=first test area , MinX=101.23 , MinY=101.5 , MaxX=215.7 , MaxY=201.953 , Area=5532.771185"
[1] "FeatureName=second test area , MinX=100 , MinY=50 , MaxX=200 , MaxY=100 , Area=5000"
5) P R O B L E M :: Code running on Autocad 2016/2017 ::
Error : "Autodesk application has stopped working"
My plugin run ok on AutoCAD 2014 (.NET 4.0) and AutoCAD 2015 (.NET 4.5), but don't running on AutoCAD 2016/2017.
The code is the same, but changed only AcMgd/AcCoreMgd/AcDbMgd and Target DotNet Framework.
When debug my plugin, crash occurs on
connection.LoadExtension("mod_spatialite");
Then I receive a AutoCAD crash message window, saying:
Autodesk applicaton has stopped working

7) Question
Anybody help me run this AutoCAD2017 plugin?
Thank you very much.

Answer 1

Do you have an error report dialog like this one after the crash?
If yes, don't close the dialog and go to the folder C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Temp (%temp%). There must be a file named dumpdata.zip. In the archive, there is an xml file which can give you more details on the error and a .dmp file you can open in Visual Studio.
