Accessing Managed code properties with Unmanaged Code

56 New Member
Hi,

I have a DLL I created in .NET. I have certain exposed properties that I have exposed that are declared as Integer or Byte arrays. Trying to access those certain properties through unmanaged code (VB6 for example) throws the following error:

Function uses an automation type not supported in Visual Basic.

Is there a way of getting around this from the VB6 side without have to make any changes to the DLL code?

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, in the last few days I've made my first few attempts at creating mixed C++ managed-unmanaged assemblies and looking aftwerwards with ILDASM at what is visible in those assemblies from a managed point-of-view I've noticed that: 1) for each managed and unmanaged C function (not C++ classes) I get a public managed static method (defined on a 'Global Functions' class) in the generated assembly with an export name of the form...

Hi, Can I mix my managed code within my unmanaged code? Just for instance, I have a socket class that is managed code. It is include in my unmanaged VC++ project and it compile. The point is, when I want to instantiate my class, I still get this error: fatal error C1190: managed targeted code requires '#using <mscorlib.dll>' and '/clr' option

I was wondering if it is possible and how to debug from managedC++ dll into unmanaged C++ code. I tried, but without any success. What I try to do is to wrap a unmanaged C++ dll using a Managed C++ wrapper class so that managed code can access my unmanaged code. Thanks. Michael

I'm having trouble accessing an unmanaged long from a managed class in VC++.NET When I do, the contents of the variable seem to be mangled. If I access the same variable byte-by-byte, I get the correct value. Regardless what I set the variable to, the value that is returned for a long is always the same value. What's going on...can anyone help me? A short version of the code follows:

Hi, I have some legacy ASP web applications that use an unmanaged COM component to connect to a third party application. The third part application has moved to the managed code in the current release with backward compatibility with the unmanaged code. In the future releases, the vendor is going to drop backward compatibility and as a result of that all our legacy ASP applications will break.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
