Im at a loss on where to proceed next. I wonder if anyone can help
me.

I have a managed C++ DLL is basically a thin wrapper around several
unmanaged classes. This DLL builds fine.

In my main C# application I have setup a project reference to this
DLL.
Im able to reference these managed .DLL classes from within my code
without problem.

However, the application runs fine up until the point where I first
access the the DLL, I get a FileLoadException.

The only useful information that this exception provides me, is the
following:

"Error while loading file 'RTAudio, Version=1.0.1724.42384,
Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null'. For more details, check for an
inner exception."

Data: System.Collections.ListDictionaryInternal
InnerExeception: "One or more arguments are invalid"

From what I can tell. The Fuslogvw.exe log indicates a good load:

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

The operation was successful.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thankyou for your response.
I've posted this message on the whidbey newsgroups that you suggested.

I posted the problem here, as I cannot confirm if this is a whidbey
specific problem, General .net problem, or plain old user error.

however, my changes of a response has just doubled. So thankyou.
 
I managed to solve my problem.

I needed to set my mixed C++ DLL to a 'Resource only DLL'..../NoEntry.

However, after this, I got an Assertion in dbgheap.c...."pUserData != null".

I fixed this by using /include "__DllMainCRTStartup@12"

Works fine now
