Re: dot net library from unmanaged C++


A vendor has supplied me with a DLL and .LIB of a C++ .NET wrapper around
their C API.

My immediate thought is - why - given that you have a native
application?

No header file.

How do I hook this into my existing solution?

Using current versions of VS you'd change your project properties to
add CLR support (the /clr option), the add a reference to their
managed DLL. You can then just start using things inside the namespace
of whatever they've provided - hint... the Object Browser will list
the things you've added as a reference to your project.
