Callback function using PInvoke

[Michibeck]

Hi,

I need some help regarding callback function written in c# and called from unmanaged c code. (c dll).
The problem is that the callback function crashs after the first call with a memory access exception. I tried to protect the callback function to be handle by the GC but it doesn't work. What could I do to fix that problem??

Thanks, Michibeck
