Calling .NET DLL from VC++

Calling .NET DLL from VC++

  You can just use C++/CLI (compiled with /CLT)and still jut reference the assembly.

  There's no such restriction. Could you show, with some sample code, how you are doing this

  VC++ can work with both managed and unmanaged code at the same time. Mixed mode assemblies, it just works!

  I am creating an event handler in my C# dll and I am also defining the handler functions in the dll itself.

  //this is the code in the dll

  void function1()

  {

  //Some code to do some processing

  MyObject.MyEvent = new CreateEventHandler(handle1);

  } //end of function1

  private void handle1(object sender, EventArgs eventArgs)

  {

  //some processing on what to do if the event has occured.

  }

  when i call the function1 from my VC++ application, it is executed, but as the event is a user event, the system goes on processing and the user does not get any time to complete the event and the event handler therefore catches nothing.

  How can the event handler function be executed from VC++. The event here i am discussing is a user driven event. So the application has to wait for the user event.
