[Media_api] Using PortMIDI in C# (.NET 2.0)

[Aaron Oxford]

Hi everyone.

Does anyone have or know of a C# wrapper for the pm_dll DLL? I have a 
wrapper for PortAudio which I've tried to mimic, but this seems to be 
failing ("Entry point Initialize() not found."). What I have going is this:

         [DllImport("pm_dll.dll")]
         public static extern void Initialize();

What is more concerning to me is that this is a *runtime* error. I 
seem to be attempting to bind to a DLL found in the directory at 
runtime. I had no idea I was doing this for PortAudio either.

I've read some stuff saying that if I'm compiling my DLLs with Visual 
Studio I need only add them as a reference in order to get it to go, 
but this tells me the DLL is not a valid assembly (as I would expect 
for unmanaged C++ output).

This is basically where I get stuck each time I attempt something 
like this. I have no idea what I'm doing or what direction to take. 
Could I for instance compile a managed version of PortMIDI?

Thanks again,
Aaron.
