Writing plugins with .NET?

Post by *ZoSTeR »

It's seems to be possible to call managed DLLs like native Win32 ones using a few tricks. See robertgiesecke and UnmanagedExport.

Could someone with more experience tell me if this would make .NET based plugins possible?

There is a (no longer maintained) .Net wrapper (1.1 and 2.0) at http://www.totalcmd.net/plugring/dotnet.html. Some plugins are based on it: http://ghisler.ch/board/viewtopic.php?t=25433, http://ghisler.ch/board/viewtopic.php?t=17097 or http://ghisler.ch/board/viewtopic.php?t=17446.

Thanks, the search function never came up with something for .net or c#. Bad search words I guess.

I got a managed DLL to be called (robertgiesecke) but I guess the concepts are just too different (data types etc) to write something without considerable effort.
