C++ to C# interop -- wrapper class?

Thread Solved |
CLR Managed code can call methods in another DLL via P/Invoke, but I recommend not doing that and instead having the native portion of you code handle dealing with other unmanaged code blocks.
C++/CLI is primarily designed to be a bridge language between managed and unmanaged code, so using it accordingly will save you a lot of time.

And to access a regular ol' unmanaged DLL with unmanaged code? Any special tricks like P/Invoke? Or can I just call it like normal?
You still need to set up your methods accordingly, but I find using C/C++ LoadLibrary and GetProcAddress to get the other native code and then calling the calling code with C++/CLI is much easier way to wrap things.
i also have the same problem , as i have DLL in C++ and i wanna create C# wrapper for this dll to use it in C# project. so if some one can help me with better details for how exactly i can do this, i would greatly appreciate.
