Calling VC++ From VB.NET

I have been searching google, google groups and MSDN but haven't found any
simple examples yet. Suggestions and/or URLs would be appreciated!

I need to write some ISO C++ functions to verify data streams. (It is
expected these will also eventually be run in Linux.) The application also
needs a management GUI. For Windows I plan to write the GUI in VB .NET
2003.

How do I call C++ from VB.NET? I'm trying to start small:

bool AlwaysReturnsTrue(void)

and work up to:

bool StreamIsValid(IN ByteArray, IN Length, OUT ErrorMessage, OUT ErrorByte)
I'm uncertain about memory issues: Who allocates, etc. I'm also unclear
about internalization of the error messages.

Thanks.
