Having hard time marshalling parameters from C++ to .Net?

  • Artigo

If you are finding it difficult to send parameters from C++ to .Net, try if you can use the following class:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#ifndef __PARAMETERS_H_A1B7ECCA_1691_43d0_ACDD_EBE1208005F9
#define __PARAMETERS_H_A1B7ECCA_1691_43d0_ACDD_EBE1208005F9

#include <Comdef.h>

#ifdef _DEBUG
 #define NO_ERROR_CHECKING FALSE //Use Error Checking for Debug Versions (throws Exception from Constructor !!)
#else
 #define NO_ERROR_CHECKING TRUE //Turn-off Error Checking for Release Versions
#endif

#ifndef _MFC_VER //Check if this is NON-MFC application
 typedef const SAFEARRAY* LPCSAFEARRAY;

class CParameters

 }
public:

   m_nCurParam = 0;
   m_nParamCount = nCount;

   SAFEARRAYBOUND bounds[] = {{nCount,0}}; //Array Contains 'nCount' Elements starting from Index '0'
   m_pSA = SafeArrayCreate(VT_VARIANT,1,bounds);
//Create a one-dimensional SafeArray of variants 

   #if NO_ERROR_CHECKING == FALSE

if(m_pSA == NULL) throw "Exception: Unable to Create Safe Array";
   #endif
 }

 ~CParameters(void)

  }

Using this class is simple and straight forward. Declare a CParameters variable and call CParameters::AddParameter() once for each argument you want to send to .Net.

For example, to invoke a method in .net that has prototype

void Foo(string strName, int nLen);

use the following from C++:

CParameters param(2); // Two parameters for the method 

param.AddParameter("Hello World!!"); // strName

  param.AddParameter(13); // nLen = strlen(strName)

  spFoo->Invoke_3(..., param); // Invoke the Foo function with the Arguments

You are welcome to add support for CParameters class to accept more types. For similar handy classes, visit https://www.geocities.com/krishnapg/
