Is it possible to embed C code in a C# project?
- by Jonathan
I know that it's possible to compile my C code into a dll, and then use P/Invoke to call that code.
What I wondered if it was possible to have a chunk of C code embedded directly in my code, perhaps only available to one class...
Something like this (non-working) example:
public class MyClass {
extern "C" {
int do_something_in_c(int i) {
return i*2;
}
}
public int DoSomething(int value) {
return do_something_in_c(value);
}
}
I've been trying for a few hours using Visual Studio 2008, but I'm not getting anywhere, and I suspect that it isn't actually possible. Can anyone confirm or deny this?
Thanks.
