[Mono-dev] mono and unmanaged code

[Greg]

Greetings,

I'm new to using mono.  I have a Windows application that I have developed
in C# with some P/Invoke calls to an unmanaged dll.  I am attempting to run
this thing in a Linux environment, but am having issues with the unamanged
calls (exact error is given below).  After a fair amount of Googling and
reading, I believe the calls are failing because the unamanged dll has not
been compiled in the native environment.  Is this true, or should mono be
able to handle unmanaged dlls that were compiled in Windows?  If it is true,
how would one proceed when they do not have the source code for this
unamanged dll?  Are there any workarounds like fiddling with the ELF headers
manually, creating some kind of wrapper, decompile/recompile, etc.?

Exact error:
Mono: DllImport error loading library '...': Invalid ELF header

Thanks for any help and/or insults,
Greg
