I wrote this article since there are little information about how to use Notes C API on C++/CLI with CLR.

Below is the settings to configure the DLL project with using Notes C API on C++/CLI. I am using Visual Studio 2005 Standard Edition.

1. After creating New Project, Go to [Project] – [Properties]
2. Go to [Configuration Properties] – [General] from left Navigation.
   Configure Dynamic Library(.dll) and Common Language Runtime Support (/clr)
   

   Configuration Properties - General

3. Go to [C/C++] – [General]
   Add Notes C API include folder into [Additional Include Directories]
   

   C/C++ - General

4. Go to [C/C++] – [Peprocessor]
   Add W32;WIN32 into [Preprocessor Definitions]
   

   C/C++ - Preprocessor

5. Go to [C/C++] – [Code Generation]
   Configure Multi-threaded DLL (/MD) into [Runtime Library]
   

   C/C++ - Code Generation

6. Go to [Linker] – [General]
   Add C Notes API Library into [Additional Include Directories]
   

   Linker - General

7. Go to [Linker] – [Input]
   Add notes.lib into [Additional Dependencies]
   

   Linker - Input

   Point the relative path if you need (i.e) notesapi\lib\mswin32\notes.lib

That’s all!
Enjoy C++/CLI programming with Notes C API!
