Calling function in x64-Fortran-DLL function from VB.NET

Hello everyone,

i have a problem regarding this function in a fortran-dll:

function RowColGet( pMat, iRegion, iMax, faOrig, faDest, iCountOrig, iCountDest ) result(iRet)
!DEC$ ATTRIBUTES ALIAS: 'V3MatRowColGet' :: RowColGet
!Specified in V3Mat.Def
!!DEC$ ATTRIBUTES DLLEXPORT, ALIAS: 'V3MatRowColGet' :: RowColGet 
!DEC$ ATTRIBUTES VALUE	::	iRegion, iMax

 use ifcom
 implicit none

 type (T_MATRIX), pointer	::	pMat
 integer(4), intent(in)	::	iRegion, iMax
 real(4), intent(out)			::	faOrig(0:iMax), faDest(0:iMax)
 integer(4), intent(out)	::	iCountOrig, iCountDest

 integer(4)	::	iRet

 ...
end function

The function definition on VB.Net side is like this:

Friend Declare Function V3MatRowColGet Lib "V3Mat.DLL" ( _
  ByRef hMatrix As IntPtr, ByVal iRegion As Integer, ByVal iMax As Integer, _
  ByRef asngOrigFirstItem As Single, ByRef asngDestFirstItem As Single, _
  ByRef iOrigCount As Integer, ByRef iDestCount As Integer) As Integer

The VB.Net part is compiled in Multi-Platform Mode.

If I run the code on an x86 environment everything works fine, if I run it on an x64 environment this function fails with an access violation.

I wonder if I have to change passing of the real(4) arrays on vb.net side?

Any clues?

Btw, where has the forum search gone?

Thanks in advance

Hi,

it might be/might not be related but what about this KB article?

I don't know VB at all but it sounds like it could be a mismatch between 4-byte and 8-byte things (pointers, handles etc)

It's still there, on the first page, just above Steve's link to attaching files.
