A better way is to create .NET wrappers (as I mentioned earlier). You create a .NET class library using C++/CLI.
And call your unmanaged DLL within your C++ code (as normal) This way you can add in an additional layer to make the calls more .NET friendly. -----Original Message----- From: Kevin Palmer Sent: 16 November 2007 16:53 To: 'Discussion of advanced .NET topics.'

It's just a bog standard windows dll...as far as I know. Do you know of any reasonable reference to do it? -----Original Message----- From: Discussion of advanced .NET topics.

If your DLL is a COM DLL you could consider using interop. Also you can write a C++/CLI component which allows access to managed & unmanaged code, create a managed (ref) class and call unmanaged code from it. -----Original Message----- From: Discussion of advanced .NET topics.
