Hello everyone,
I'm currently trying to migrate a MSVC6 project to .NET... The straight
conversion (ie : unmanaged) was extremely straightforward . Now I'm trying to
compile and hopefully run the project as managed to estimate the kind of
performance difference there will be for the kind of applications we do
here.
The project is composed of a EXE and 5 different DLLs. One of these DLL is
unmanaged (VC6) and can hopefully stay that way for my test since I do not
have access to the source code.
I got the whole thing to compile rather quickly in Release, but the thing
won't run. The program starts and ends immediatly, without any error or
warning from the OS.
I then tried to compile in Debug but got a couple errors concerning a /RTC1
and /clr conflict. After some research, I found out I had to use /NOENTRY to
avoid this error. This brought another problem. All the DLLs except one
(haven't found the reason yet) scream they can't find _main (LNK2019).
I messed around, looked on the net and couldn't find a reason why a DLL
would want a main... I simply added this :
void __cdecl main(void) {}
... and it "fixed" the compilation error... The Debug EXE doesn't work
either, but now I can at least see what the following errors are occuring :
'Opti.exe': Loaded 'C:\Projets\Deb ug.BIN\ConvMan. dll', Symbols loaded.
'Opti.exe': Loaded
'C:\WINNT\Micro soft.NET\Framew ork\v1.1.4322\m scorwks.dll', No symbols

First-chance exception at 0x791b970e in Opti.exe: 0xC0000005: Access

The thread 'Win32 Thread' (0x560) has exited with code -2146233082
(0x80131506).
The program '[468] Opti.exe: Native' has exited with code -2146233082
(0x80131506).
I'm a bit confused now... It seems the "bug" happens before my code is even
called. I suppose this is a common problem and that perhaps someone could
help me with it...
Thanks alot,

<Bump>
I can't beleive nobody here has any idea on how to resolve this...
Thanks,

I've converted " byte" to "byte *" at times, using 'unsafe' and
fixed { .... }, but the reverse does not seem to work.
In this case, a C++ DLL returns a byte * and a length. What is the best
way to convert these to straight C#-compatible straight " byte" arrays?
PS: The C++ DLL is actually managed and I have access to the source.
Perhaps there is a simpler syntax for doing the conversion there, and
returning a C# compatible array...

Hi,
I am writing a performence critical application, this require me to stick to unmanaged C++ as performance is much better using unmanaged C++ ( about 33% better ), Still, I am trying to avoid the usage of old style COM, my alternative is to expose my unmanaged interface through the CLI, to achieve that I have created a mixed mode DLL in which my unmanaged class are defined.
When referencing the DLL just described in another mixed mode EXE...
