How can call a DLL function using GetProcAddress

[Guest]

I am developing a project where I made one DLL in Embedded C++ 4.0 with
determined functions that will be executed in one applicatory developed in C
# with SmartPhone 2003.


The order of the customer, I must carry through one LoadLibrary to load some
initial configurations. To have access these methods, I must use the
GetProcAddress to recoup the Handle of the methods. Until this point I obtain
all the necessary information but as I must execute the method that he is in
my DLL. It stows seeing the documentation of Microsoft and vi that I must use
the MethodInfo classroom to execute such method but I am not obtaining
results. Somebody would have some example.

Thanks for help

Function pointers are not supported in the CF, so there's really no way to
do what I think you're trying to do. If you can't declare it with a
P/Invoke, you can't call it.

You could create a shim DLL, also with eVC, and call *that* from your
managed code. The shim would load the library, get the address and call the
function, maybe returning an error, if the library couldn't be loaded or
whatever.

I found this method

MethodBase.GetMethodFromHandle().Invoke

But, this method, GetMethodFromHandle(), need a parameter of type
RuntimeMethodHandle Structure

How I use this Method?

I think that I can use this method for calling my DLL method. This is
possible or not??? If the ask is true, how can I use this method. Anybody had
a example for this method????

Thank so much for help

I thought we already established that you can't do this. You cannot call a
function pointer. The only workaround is to write an unmanaged shim as Paul
suggested.
