Hey,

I need to somehow call some functions from a .net (VC++) dll inside a
Tcl script.I must mention that I don't have access to the dll code.

Did anyone succeed in doing this?

Thanks,
Bogdan

PS: Already tried http://wiki.tcl.tk/12264 and http://sourceforge.net/projects/tcl-dll-caller/
but with no success...

Thanks for the reply,

I tried ffidl and I got an error ("couldn't find symbol
"GetUnitConfiguration" : ???") when calling "ffidl::symbol"

load "C:\\FfidlTEST\\Ffidl0.6\\Ffidl06.dll"
set DLL "D:\\ConfigService\\8.0(011040)\
\AvayaIPOConfigBaseServices.dll"

The script I ran is this:

#public string GetUnitConfiguration(IPAddress ipAddress, Int32
portNumber, string accountName, string password, string macAddress)
set sym [ffidl::symbol $DLL GetUnitConfiguration]
ffidl::callout GetUnitConfiguration {string int string string string}
string $sym
set xmlF [GetUnitConfiguration "172.27.3.1" "50805" "Administrator"
"Administrator" "00e00703489f"]
