I can't get my C# dll to work, i've done all the necessary stuff (i think) to get my functions exported.

code:

---

namespace Effection
{
    [InterfaceType(ComInterfaceType.InterfaceIsIDispatch)]
    public interface iFunctions
    {
        [DispId(1)]
        string ReturnAye();
    }
    [ClassInterface(ClassInterfaceType.None)]
    [ProgId("Effection.MyFunctions")]
    public class MyFunctions : iFunctions
    {
        public string ReturnAye()
        {
            return "Aye";
        }
    }
}

---

code:

---

var path = MsgPlus.ScriptFilesPath+"\\Functions.dll";
Interop.Call2(path,"ReturnAye");

---

this fails on the Interop Call

interop.call and call2 don't support managed DLLs.

shouldn't matter as long as you export everything for COM, which i can't seem to get to work.

anyone who has done this please help me

.NET COM objects require a COM Interop DLL that will be produced alongside the managed DLL. Both need to be kept together at all times.

any articles on how to do this?

Just so long as the project is set to produce a COM-visible DLL, the Interop DLL comes automatically.
