ManagedC++ security: How to avoid the stack walk?

In C# I could remove security check on an C DLL call by tagging my function
as follow:
[System::Security::SuppressUnmanagedCodeSecurityAttribute]
[DllImport("SomeDll.dll")]
static extern void SomeMethod();

In Managed C++ I don't declare the function I just #include the headers.

How could I avoid security stack walk?

I would assume that you would apply it to the managed function that's
calling the native function. Attributes can't really be attached to native
functions - the C# declaration really attaches the attribute to the P/Invoke
thunk that's automatically generated and not to the native function itself.

Thanks Daniel!

Mmh.. it looks like I'm stuck in a wall...
Anyway.....
