Importing DLL functions in c# code

c, c#, c++, dllimport, extern

Solution

Please have a look at the following article on Code Project for an in depth explanation

A small sample from the linked article is as shown below

To call a function, say methodName

int __declspec(dllexport) methodName(int b)
{
      return b;
}

Include the class library (MethodNameLibrary.dll) containing the above method as shown below in c#

class Program
{
   [DllImport(@"c:\MethodNameLibrary.dll")]
   private static extern int methodName(int b);
   static void Main(string[] args)
   {
       Console.WriteLine(methodName(3));
   }
}

Problem

I have a DLL, whose functions i want to use in my c# code Here are the functions of that DLL : ``` extern "C" { __declspec(dllimport) const char* __stdcall ZAJsonRequestA(const char *szReq); __declspec(dllimport) const wchar_t* __stdcall ZAJsonRequestW(const wchar_t *szReq); __declspec(dllimport) const BSTR __stdcall ZAJsonRequestBSTR(BSTR sReq); } ``` Can anyone tell me how to use it in c# project, as this dll seems to be in other language ?
