Managed Extensions in VS2008 ?

[gvanto]

I have a class in C++ (unmanaged) which I would like to place a wrapper around in managed (visual) C++ in order to create a dll which I can use in C# applications as a class library. I'm having quite a bit of trouble getting this to work by following MSDN's article here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa712961%28VS.71%29.aspx[^] and was wondering if this is even possible in VS2008? If there's a tutorial showing how to do this I'd be greatly interested in seeing it. Thanks for any help / advice Gvanto

I've done this several times. If you have a specific question, I'd be glad to do what I can to help.

Hi Richard, I'm just after an example of how to do it. Came across this: Managing the Unmanaged Code[^] In VS2008, what project do I need to create to get started in this? Cheers gvanto

You create a new C++ project (MFC allowable) and then once it's created, go into the project properties and enable CLR support. Now your C++ project can mix managed and unmanaged code.
