[U2] Unidata 7.1.9 and .Net DLL
Does anyone know if you can hook/link a .NET dll (Managed code) into Unidata 7.1.9 (Windows). I know you can with COM .DLL by creating an E type voc entry. Sample COM DLL Voc entry 1 E 2 E:\Vertex\VertexUtils\VertexDriver.DLL 3 v_LocConnect 4 POINTER 5 CHAR_PTR 6 CHAR_PTR 7 CHAR_PTR 8 CHAR_PTR 9 INT I was hoping to update the VertexDriver.DLL (Currently COM/_cdecl) to a .Net dll. I really hate writing c code. David Wolverton, you out there? I know you have some experience writing c - Vertex utils. I may just end up writing a webservice to handle this and have Unidata call the webservice. Just want to check before I start writing this. Thanks for any assistance.

Vertex's new code for passing XML is pretty sweet -- it's a different interface, but worth checking out. It's called their 'Enhanced Interface' version.

Re: [U2] Unidata 7.1.9 and .Net DLL
Check out regasm.exe (part of the .NET SDK). You can use it to create a COM Interop interface to an assembly. Note that on a x64 system there is one version for 32 bit, and another one for 64 bit access. You can add these lines to a PostBuildEvent: %25Windir%25\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\regasm $(TargetPath) %25Windir%25\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v2.0.50727\regasm $(TargetPath) I haven't tried it myself, so your mileage may vary. Void where prohibited... etc... -Original Message- From: u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org [mailto:u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org] On Behalf Of Don Sent: Tuesday, July 20, 2010 7:21 PM To: 'U2 Users List' Subject: [U2] Unidata 7.1.9 and .Net DLL Does anyone know if you can hook/link a .NET dll (Managed code) into Unidata 7.1.9 (Windows).

I really hate writing c code. Don - This isn't rocket science (pun intended). Google for call ..net from com and related keywords regasm and Make Assembly COM Visible. I should also mention that mv.NET also has the capability to trigger .NET code events from the MV DBMS, though it's not as fast as linked DLLs. In full disclosure, my company is a worldwide distributor for this product, so consider this paragraph an AD. Speaking of web services, I've written a few articles in my blog recently (link below), about automatic generation of fully functional Web Services against common BASIC code. I dunno if any of that matches your plans. HTH Tony Gravagno Nebula Research and Development TG@ remove.pleaseNebula-RnD.com remove.pleaseNebula-RnD.com/blog Visit PickWiki.com!
