RE: mixed mode dll usage
Hi Elad,
The .NET code(e.g. C#/ASP.NET) could load the mixed mode dll as a managed
assembly or a native DLL. It depends on what your mixed mode DLL provides.
If you compile it as a pure CLR and want to use its inside managed class,
just use it as a normal managed assembly.
If your mixed mode DLL exports some native API function, then in .NET code
you can use PInvoke to use it.
Besides, there would be some troubles while NET runtime loading and
initializing the mixed mode DLLs, there is an article to discuss on this
issue, I think it may be useful to you:
Mixed-Mode Library Assembly Bug and Managed C++
Understanding the .NET runtime and the loading and initializing of DLLs can
help avoid trouble in mixed-mode assemblies
By the way, I found you have already posted another thread in this
newsgroup - 'mixed mode dll - link error' which seems to be a similar
problem to this one. MVP William provided some suggestion in that thread,
does it work for you.
Thanks!
Best regards,
Gary Chang
