Colin,

There is only one option to create a DLL based on .NET code that can be called from mapbasic without any further wrappers:

Delphi.NET

You can be dead sure VB.NET doesn't support such an old-fashioned thing as DLL's - not even VB6 did that. VB tools and mapbasic just doesn't match up. Perhaps with a wrapper written in some other language (C++ / delphi).

Uffe

Subject: MI-L Calling a VB.NET assembly from MapBasic


Hi All,

Has anyone tried to call a VB.NET assembly from MapBasic? I notice in the assenbly you can create it so that is registers as a COM assembly, is it possible to call a COM assembly from MapBasic? I suspect the answer is no but if anyone can shed any light on this it would be useful. It must be possible as in the UK MapInfo has an application built in .NET and running inside MapInfo with a ToolBar - for those UK based people it is the BS7666 GMS application. If anyone has this in their authority do they have an y clues as to how it interacts with MapInfo?

I look forward to hearing anyone's views!

Thanks,
Colin Henderson
