Hello!

It is straightforward - assure that your declarations of DllImport attribute
work under Win (they do) and better have no ".dll" extension and use the
very same dll with P/Invoke calls under linux. Should work - my dll's work
this way.

For details check Mono Handbook - Advnanced Topics P/Invoke - there is
additional functionality which you do not need for this library -
retargeting of library calls with dll .config files.

Cheers

Jacek

Hi,

I have some C# code that uses platform invoke to call functions in
libbz2.dll to perform compression. Works fine under Windows, with both Mono
and Visual C#.

Given a Linux libbz2.so (or libbz2.a), or the bz2 source, how can I build a
dll that Mono can call under Windows?

Thanks muchly,

Michi.
