Question

I have a native C++ project. It can produce either a dll or lib file.

I am creating a C++.NET project (C++ Windows Form application) in Visual Studio 2010. I Would like to add that library into this project in order to call public methods from that library.

I have three questions:

1. Should I produce a dll or lib file from the native C++ Project?
2. How can I add that native library in the C++.NET project?
3. I am looking for sample code to show how to call a method from the native library in the C++.NET project.

I am very new to C++.NET.
