C# dll and SF7

[luka]

Hi,

I would like to ask if it is possible to write a dll in C# and then call it's methods from SF7, or the dlls must be written in C++ in order to be useable by SF7?

Regards,
Luka

The problem with .NET DLLs is that they are not callable in the usual DLL way by non-.NET applications. I think that they do (or can) generally expose a COM interface so you might be able to use the LuaCOM plugin to communicate with it in that way.

The bigger issue, in my opionion, is that the .NET runtime must be installed on the end user's system before you can call a .NET DLL anyhow. This would be a risky assumption during an installation.
