\CLR Mixed mode compilation woes!

[Herby]

Iv compiled my current C++ project as \clr as i want to start putting
in some specific C++\CLI code to serialize my MFC objects to .NET
equivalents.
The program crashes on startup, something to do with the stack frame
being corrupted.

My first concern is the program has ballooned in terms of the size of
the executable image.
When it attempts to run it fails and some report about stack frame
corruption.

Iv noticed any C files have to be converted to C++.

The program links to a DLL and Libs that have been compiled as C.

Is this a problem when compiling a program as /CLR that then links with
C libs etc and on startup loads C Dlls?

How can i specifically instruct the compiler to only compiler specific
functions/methods as managed(mixed mode) and to leave everything else
as native?
Is this possible?

Thanks in advance.

Can anyone help me on this?
it has become a real show stopper!

How can i reference umanaged types derived from the MFC CObject within
a managed module?

I thought this was a big selling point of the mixed mode approach?

Yes I can help myself. I 'managed' to do it.

<code>
#include <afx.h> // MFC core and standard components
#include<afxtem pl.h>

#pragma managed(push, off)
#include"map_dw o.h"
#include"Runtim eMap.h"
#include"Conver t2DotNet.h"
#pragma managed(pop)

#using<Runtime2 .DLL>

using namespace Runtime2;

bool Convert2DotNet( CRuntimeMap* pMap)
{
RuntimeMap^ pGcMap = gcnew RuntimeMap;
return true;
}
</code>

Had to exclude the system headers outside of the un-managed set.

All systems go!

Ok..
Given an unmanaged class is it possible for one of its methods to be
compiled as managed?

The reason being im copying member data from the source unmanaged
object to the new managed target object. I would like direct acces to
this source member data via one of its methods.
Ideally all my current un-managed classes that must take part in the
..NET converison will implement the Convert2DotNet method( preferably
via an iterface class, but lets keep it simple as possible for now)

E.g.

#pragma managed
CRuntimeMap::Co nvert2DotNet(vo id)
{
}

When i attempt to do this i get the following error

error C3295: '#pragma managed' can only be used at global or namespace
scope

Is there anyway to acheive this?
