Hi Sherman, I've done some C++/C# wrapping some time ago. Here are my advices :
- If you just need to call from your C# UI some predefined functions from you C++ code, it's easy. You just need to create a Wrapping DLL which makes the link with your C++ calls. Your C# code will just need to call these functions (with invoke methods). - If you need to make calls from you C++ part to your C# part, it's much more complicated ! You need to use managed C++ and it's a real pain... - If you need to call any OSG method from your C# code, take a look at the OSG .net project. Hope this helps !
