Hi,
I've gotten much help on-line about this and have the code implemented
to use the unmanaged dll in my C# code. Now, however, the problem
seems to be with the calling of the function that I need from the
dll. The DLL, by the way, is also a project in this VS solution.
So, I have the following:
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
[DllImport("the.dll")]
static extern bool TheFunction(<args>);
// then using the function as one would expect
bool returnIsTrue = TheFunction(args[0]);
Now, when I start a new debugging instance for the program I'm greeted
with, "EntryPointNotFoundException, Unable to find an entry point in
'the.dll' named 'TheFunction'." I know what an entry point is, even
for a DLL file, but why should this need an entry point for the DLL?
I simply want to call this function from the DLL.
I've found the appropriate declarations for the functions I need in
the appropriate header files for this C++ DLL project in my solution
and put the, "__declspec(dllexport)," in front of the function
declarations. I thought that would take care of this, but it hasn't.
What am I missing?
Thanks for any help, but if this forum isn't the right place, sorry.
Please point me to a better forum.
Andy
