Good work - For the most part Interop is not for the faint of heart..;) Now try it with a legacy C application!

I just did this. I took my .NET assemblies and made a COM Interop CCW and then used the CCW to call through it from unmanaged code through COM. The steps are in Adam Nathan's most excellent book but basically something like this: 1) Create the .NET class 2) Generate a key for it - sn -k keyfile.snk 3) Put in the assembly directive for the key *can't remember from memory and 1/2 asleep right now) something like [(Assembly: AssemblyKeyFile("keyfile.snk")] at top of file 4) Compile 5) regasm file.dll /tlb 6) gacutil -I file.dll 7) copy generated tlb into MC++ code directory 8) In MC++ file: #import file.tlb no_namespaces named_guids and one other I can't remember 9) Compile C++ code and you will have access to the CCW through the types in the imported tlb Adam has it explained neater in his book-) I haven't had my coffee yet -) Sam Gentile Co-Author Wrox Professional Visual C++.NET (ISBN 1861005962 ) [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.project-inspiration.com/sgentile http://www.project-inspiration.com/sgentile/DotNet.htm BLOG: http://radio.weblogs.com/0105852/ http://www.project-inspiration.com/sgentile/ScienceFiction.htm -----Original Message----- From: dotnet discussion [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Thomas Tomiczek Sent: Friday, April 12, 2002 4:35 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [DOTNET] Exporting C# methods to unmanaged world...

April 2002 10:02 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [DOTNET] Exporting C# methods to unmanaged world... Hi... Is there a way to export C# methods (probably, static method...) directly to the unmanaged world ? I mean... something like the old extern "C" from C++ ? My current solution is to have another DLL written in C++ that calls my assembly... :/ thanks in advance jmn -- ^ ^ (o o) José Manuel Nobre (( v )) ----x-x----------------------------------------------------------------- ---- PragmaSis - Sistemas de Informação, SA Pc. de Alvalade, 6 - 2 A2 1700 - 036 Lisboa Portugal Tel. +351 217 827 547 Fax. +351 217 961 803 You can read messages from the DOTNET archive, unsubscribe from DOTNET, or subscribe to other DevelopMentor lists at http://discuss.develop.com.
