| Asynchronous callbacks from native Win32 code | Dated: 2004-01-15 |
|
| In the .NET Compact Framework newsgroup several people have asked questions about passing delegates to native Win32 DLL’s to be used as asynchronous callbacks to P/Invoke back into managed code after an unmanaged function wants to report back to its caller. Unfortunately, passing delegates to unmanaged code is not supported by the .NET Compact Framework. With a little extra coding effort it is possible to setup an event handler mechanism that exposes itself to the managed application developer as if true delegates exist to call back from unmanaged code into managed code. In this article we provide you with the details of this mechanism. |
