What is the best case for accessing managed code from unmanaged code?

Hi,

What is the best case for accessing managed code from unmanaged C++ code,
considering that the unmanaged code doesn't have managed extension?

Please reply.
Thanks in advance.

See the CLR hosting APIs.

See http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/is...r/default.aspx, for
example.

Using Managed Extensions is a far better choice in most cases.

In addition to Carl's suggestions, you could also look at CCW.

In addition to that, you can also use pointers to managed functions with
unmanaged calling conventions.

A standard case of this is virtual functions of native classes implemented
in managed code. Other cases exist as well.

.... but only through the use of Managed Extensions for C++, which the OP
specifically didn't want to use.

I am having problems accessing a managed object from unmanaged code. Specifically, I have a .NET forms application with a web service proxy. The forms application links to an unmanaged DLL which uses callbacks to receive data via TCP. The data received in the callback must be passed to a web service via a web method provided by the proxy. So the callback (which is unmanaged code) needs to access the proxy (managed object) to send the...

Hello Esteemed Developers and Experts, I have been using Microsoft Visual C++ .NET for 1 year. During this time, I have searhed some topics over internets. Most of the topics about .NET is related to C# and Visual Basic .NET. There are less documents about Visual C++ .NET or Managed C++. I wonder the reasons of below questions: 1) Is C# more powerful than Managed C++ and Visual C++ .NET? 2) Is Microsoft intending to support C# and...

I have read threads here and there and I have looked at MS but I can not get a clear understanding of what .Net acutally is. I understand that C++ and Vb and other languages are being out a .Net. I get some idea that it still is OOP. I think it has different ways of managing the code. But what is it? Thanks -- SailFL
