Managed AdHoc API? intel laptop gaming tdk...

serfio — Sat, 21 Mar 2009 00:11:47 GMT

Good morning,

I've used the Intel Laptop Gaming TDK for some c++ little test application...but know I need to use .net framework.
I Know that there isn't a managed version of the library...

I would try to make a c++/cli wrapper to use some of the adhoc api capabilities into the managed world...

How I can make this wrapper?..I've tried to compile a simple wrapper wich only include the AdHoc.h but I got a lot of error..(I've also add "AdHocAPI.lib" into the additional dependencies)

Can you point me out into the right direction?

Thanks

How are you wrapping the API? Using PInvoke?

How are you wrapping the API? Using PInvoke?

I'm trying to code a simple c++/cli wrapper using C++ interop.

With VS2005 "new project> VisualC++> CLR> Class Library"

I'm writing something like this:

#pragma once
#include "AdHoc.h"

using namespace System;

namespace myWrapper {
public ref class myAdHocWrapper
{
public:
myAdHocWrapper(void){
//initialize private AdHoc pointer
};
private:
//pointer to the native adHoc object -- AdHoc *nativeAdHocPointer;
};
}

I've also add AdHocAPI.lib into properties page (myWrapper properties> Linker> Input> Additional dependencies).

building the code above give me a lot of error into the following file: l2cmn.h, ifdef.h, devpkey.h

I asked around and haven't yet found anyone who has done a .Net binding on top of the C++ api. I'll let you know if I find something out.

FYI, I did find out that there is no .net API supported and no plans to implement a .net API at this time. Hopefully someone else who reads this post may have more information for you.

unfortunatly I know this...

I hope someone can help me to code a .net wrapper for the AdHoc API.
I really need the AdHoc API capabilities...I haven't found any other library to manage adhoc network out there.

If someone knows a .nety library to manage adhoc network let me know..

Thanks
