Smart Card Support in C#

Hello,

Thanks for reviewing my question. I would like to know if
there is any support for Smart Development in C#? It is
as easy as:

using smartcards;

Many Thanks

Peter,

No, it is not. There is no native support for smartcards in the .NET
framework. However, if you know of an API that is exposed through exported
functions in dlls or through COM components, then you can use those in .NET
through the P/Invoke layer and COM interop respectively.

Hope this helps.
