v3.0.1.0
February 04, 2019- ➕ Add a check that explicitly tests if the provided interface is public. This is necessary for generating dynamic proxies with Castle.

v3.0.0.0
February 03, 2019LegacyWrapper 3.0 is a major rewrite and not backwards compatible to prior versions.
🚀 See this blog post for details.
The old
Invoke<TDelegate>()method has been replaced by a much simpler and more type-safe pattern:// Define a proxy interface with matching method names and signatures// The interface must be derived from IDisposable![LegacyDllImport("User32.dll")]public interface IUser32Dll : IDisposable{ [LegacyDllMethod(CallingConvention = CallingConvention.Winapi)] int GetSystemMetrics(int nIndex); }// Create configurationIWrapperConfig configuration = WrapperConfigBuilder.Create() .TargetArchitecture(TargetArchitecture.X86) .Build();// Create new Wrapper client providing the proxy interface// Remember to ensure a call to the Dispose()-Method!using (var client = WrapperProxyFactory<IUser32Dll>.GetInstance(configuration)) { // Make calls - it's that simple!int x = client.GetSystemMetrics(0); int y = client.GetSystemMetrics(1); }
Therefore, there is no longer the need to:
- Create a
delegate - Cast result values
- Pass function parameters as array of
object - Supply the method name as magic string
Other things that changed:
- 📚 Documentation on classes and methods has been improved
- ✅ There are more unit tests now (especially edge cases)

v2.1
August 20, 2017- It is now possible to load 64bit libraries in a 32bit process:
using (var client = new WrapperClient(TestDllPath, TargetArchitecture.Amd64)) { result = (int)client.Invoke<TestStdCallDelegate>("TestStdCall", new object[] { input }); }- Please note that this will only work if the OS is 64 bit.
- 🚀 As the second optional parameter defaults to X86, this release should be backwards compatible.
