Hi,

is it possible to use a API coded in C from C#??

If yes, is there a general HowTo on this Topic somewhere around??

Thanks for any Hint!!

Use InterOp..

There is a DllImport("libraryname") functioanlity in C# that lets you call C
API's. You will have to declare the functions you are calling as static
extern's and marshall the arguments properly.

Here are some resources:
