Using a .net DLL in a Visual C++ 6.0 project ...

[nobs]

Is this possible?

We have a application in Visual 6.0 and i want to add some
functionality.

is it possibly to code it in .net and use it in a native c++/MFC
project?
or is it easier just to code it in c++.

Hi,

You can do it, you can create a COM callable wrapper around a .net dll and
makes it callable as a COM object, you have to do a couple of things, like
setting a Guid , generate a tbl file , etc

Take a look at MSDN,

cheers,

You can do it using .Net Interop, but if you are sure that it will be
used in C++/MFC, it probably makes more sense to do it in C++ , the
unmanaged world.

HTH.
