Allowing calls from unmanaged code

Hi All,

I have an application which has been succesfully installed on a number of different client machines.

The problem I now have is that I have been asked to allow third party applications, possibly written in a non .net language set to plug into my application and execute some of the code. Just a handfull of properties and half a dozen methods.

Now I can wrap up these properties/methods, make them public and have them in their own project which will be part of my solution but I have no idea where to go from here.

How do I make this portion of my application accesible to a third party application written in unmanaged code ?

Thanks In Advance:wave:

You can expose your assembly to COM by setting a property or two. You can even add a ComClass to make your type/assembly look like a COM object, although I've never had need to do so. I'd suggest a bit of reading, but I do know it's not especially difficult.
