Any idea please ?

As the message says, you cannot pass a SeeSPMPLMClientLib::ISeeSPMPLMClientPtr to a method that expects a My_Dll_Namespace::ISeeSPMPLMClient *. Check the documentation and the header files to see exactly what you should be passing across.

as you see above the API take as parameter the same type which I pass from C++ !!!

Er, No; otherwise the compiler would not be producing that error message.

this is cant be caused by ambiguity of namespaces ? i.e : if this type is used in C# dll and after passed from other project which use same type we have ambiguity of Type ?

As I said before, you need to look at the .tlb and .h files to check exactly what object you should be passing.

m_pICDBrowser is a variable of a type defined in the namespace My_Dll_Namespace, therefore the method Initialize is also defined in that namespace, and, according to the compiler error message, expects an argument of pointer to a type that's also defined in that namespace. You however pass an argument that's defined in an entirely different namespace, SeeSPMPLMClientLib - it's a different type.

As you see above I pass the same type :

public interface ICDBrowserServiceMgr
{
[DispId(15)]
void Initialize(SeeSPMPLMClientLib.TSeeSPMPLMClient A_pClient);

...}

and in call

SeeSPMPLMClientLib::ISeeSPMPLMClientPtr m_pPLMClientMgr;

m_pICDBrowser->Initialize(m_pPLMClientMgr);

[Stefan_Lang]

You're missing my point. Check the type of

m_pICDBrowser

! the function

Initialize()

you are calling here is not the one you think you are calling!

Not understand , please can you explain more ?!!

[Stefan_Lang]

Maybe it's best you take another look at the error message you got. In the line

m_pICDBrowser->Initialize(m_pPLMClientMgr);

the error message states that it cannot convert the first parameter in the call (m_pPLMClientMgr to the type that the function expects. According to the error message, the type of m_pPLMClientMgr is SeeSPMPLMClientLib::ISeeSPMPLMClientPtr, but the type it expects is My_Dll_Namespace::ISeeSPMPLMClient *. This implies, that you have a type ISeeSPMPLMClientPtr defined somewhere in namespace SeeSPMPLMClientLib, but it is not defined as the required type My_Dll_Namespace::ISeeSPMPLMClient *. I suspect that you mixed up the two namespaces. Maybe you inserted a using namespace somewhere (always a bad idea), and then you no longer saw what namespace the definitions and types refer to, or maybe you just have a wrong type definition.
