.NET c# application call win32 regulare dll api

[Chi Tang]

Hi,

Does anybody know how to call a unmanaged win32 dll function from a .NET C#
managed application? Do I need to write a managed C++ dll or a COM dll
which become a server of .net C# app or I can just 'import' the win32 dll
into my .NET C# application? Where can I get the sample? Thanks a lot for
any help,

CT

Chi,

Check out the section of the .NET framework documentation titled
"Platform Invoke Tutorial", located at (watch for line wrap):

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/d...us/csref/html/vcwlkPlatformInvokeTutorial.asp

Hope this helps.
