.NET dll and embedded Visual C++

[RahimAsif]

Hi everyone,
We have an application that runs on CE platform that is written in
embedded Visual C++. Presently, we are thinking of writing a .NET dll
(to take advantage of regular expressions in .NET) and having the
application call this dll to do some address validation.

The big question is: is it possible for an application written in
embedded Visual C++ to call a dll written in .NET (using C#)?

Thanks in advance.

Just out of interest, have you looked at the regular expression classes
in ATL? These could be used from the desktop version of ATL in your CE
C++ application.
