how to import C# DLLs in C++ project?

[Constantin Christmann via .NET 247]

Hi!

I need to create some windows for debugging purpose in a big C++ project but I don't want to do this with MFC or Win32 coding.
I'd prefer to build this debugging windows with C#, make a DLL and import this in the big project.
My problem is now that there is a lot of information how to use old C++ DLLs in C# but nothing about how to go the opposite way.

Tx!
Constantin

Constantin,

You have two options. The first would be to export your types from .NET
into COM, and then call it through your C++ code.

The other option is to use managed extentions for C++ to access managed
code.

Hope this helps.
