Hi!
I'm trying to use P/Invoke and a Method which takes an IntPtr where I am
supposed to put an address to a method which the native method will use
to communicate back to me. How do I convert a method to an IntPtr?

Hi!
Well, in that sample and as in any sample I have seen the P/Invoke
function takes a delegate object like this:
public static extern int EnumWindows(CallBack x, int y);
Then it is not a problem, you create a delegate object and send it but I
have a function that is more like this:
public static extern int EnumWindows(IntPtr callback, int y)
If I send a delegate object as the first parameter I get an error and I
have no idea how to convert a delegate to an IntPtr.

Hi, Christian
I am not sure I understand your issue. You can declare function as in the
sample instead of with IntPtr and test if it works.

Hi!
Thanks for the help but there is no information about the function I am
using there.
Is it even possible to send an adress to a method as an int?

Hi!
Well, the reason I don't want to change the P/Invoke declaration is that
I add a reference to an assembly with this function declaration, that
someone else has written so I don't want to alter the code because then
I'll have to do it all over when a new version is released. I thought
that there was an easy way to accomplish this. I can't find the guy who
has written it, otherwise I would have talked to him about it.
When I change the declaration and replace the IntPtr to my delgate type
the program crashes when the callback is supposed to happen.

what exactly is crash message or code? If you have available original
definition of function and callback (C++ or whatever was used), possibly
posting it would help to find the reason.
You might need to use DllImportAttribute like CallingConvention too. Now it
is not clear if it crashes because of wrong callback definition, parameter
passing or something else.

The message I get is "Unhandled WIN 32 exception".
The delegate :
public delegate byte STREAMCALLBACK(IntPtr stream, IntPtr buff, int len,

my callback method:

Use Marshal.GetLastWin32Error to get more details on the error.
You might have also issue with return type byte for callback.

You might need to check following points:
- what is F_CALLBACKAPI - is it winapi or something else
- do you need to use MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.AsAny) attribute for userdata
parameter or ref if you get back something
- use of HandleRef or GCHandle to prevent garbage collection for delegate
and passed in/out data. Check samples for both to see how and when to use
- use of cordbg to get to exception details
- declared userdata as int and not as IntPtr

Since "callback" is local it will get out of scope after the function
finishes. Passing a delegate to unmanaged code doesn't keep it alive.
You must keep a managed reference. (e.g. put the callback variable as a
class field )

Hi!
Thanks, you are right. I changed so that the callback is a private class
member and then it worked!!
But I still had to change from this:
[DllImport ("fmod.dll")]
public static extern bool FSOUND_Stream_SetEndCallback(IntPtr
FSOUND_STREAM_stream,IntPtr FSOUND_STREAMCALLBACK_callback,IntPtr userdata);
to this:
[DllImport ("fmod.dll")]
public static extern bool FSOUND_Stream_SetEndCallback(IntPtr
FSOUND_STREAM_stream,STREAMCALLBACK
FSOUND_STREAMCALLBACK_callback,IntPtr userdata);
Anyone know how to use the original function declaration?

Here is how I usually do this
// type of callback
delegate bool EnumWindowsProc(IntPtr hWnd, IntPtr lParam);
// this is the secret
[StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential)]
struct CallbackPtrStruct
{
[MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.FunctionPtr)] public EnumWindowsProc
Callback;
}
// Get a Pointer to our function
// Suppose your member function is Callback(IntPtr hWnd, IntPtr lParam);
CallbackPtrStruct ptrStruct = new CallbackPtrStruct();
ptrStruct.Callback = new EnumWindowsProc(this.Callback);
IntPtr StructPtr = Marshal.AllocCoTaskMem(Marshal.SizeOf(ptrStruct));
Marshal.StructureToPtr(ptrStruct,StructPtr,false);
IntPtr FuncPtr = Marshal.ReadIntPtr(StructPtr); // now we have a pointer
Marshal.FreeCoTaskMem(StructPtr);
// voila!
