AFAIK, no tool for this, either.

It is a shame that you can't currently do this especially since VAX/VMS
allowed modules written in disparate languages to be linked and used
together seamlessly more than two decades ago.

It is not what you asked, but it is possible to link to "net modules" and
then to create an "assembly" from net nodules. I've not tried it, but I
_think_ that the C# and VB.Net compilers are capable of creating netmodules.

Generally i wrote completly new project and want write it in one language,
but
- i need MC++ to interact with native code
- MC++ have few restrictions and stranges so i can't use only C++ ((
may be third party tools? C++ can generate managed OBJ files which link
links
it is very strange that asm can not be compiled into OBJ instead of C++

This is what it does best.

Hmm, what do you mean?

Without going in to great detail, why don't you explain exactly what you
need to do?
Together, MC++'s "It just works" which allows mixing native and managed code
in the same MC++ module - and Platform/Invoke which permits invocation of
external functions in unmanaged DLLs provide a lot of capability.

- i already wrote this as separate message to this group
System.TypeLoadException: Method GetObjectData in type
MyProj.Runtime.NativeHandle from assembly MyProj.Runtime does not have an
implementation. without reasonable motive
- can't code private inheritance of interface class MyClass :private
IMyInterface, but when IMyIterface marked as private its defenition is
absent in assembly metadata, but inheritance still stays public - assembly
fails to load ((
not so huge
- cant implement interface with property name == class name
- can't directly override Finalize, when implementing ~__dtor compiler makes
reference to MSVCRT71, i don't want install to clients this dll only because
of dtors (C# and VB dont use __CxxUnwind ... )
- cant mark native class as public or private, strange, but native classes
becames public
- the same with all native data types or functions. - i understand why MS
need describe them in metadata, but why public ? (((
and many small issues, even dont want to recall

Probably my problem but I have no idea what the heck you are talking about.
I'll bow out of this thread now ...

I think that he probably meant compiled in mixed mode, and I think this
can be done by using extern "C" inside a C++ file and then compile the
whole thing with /clr.

Could be, which is why I mentioned IJW and asked for more details.
The only thing that is clear is that his "compile back" is at least a
problematic usage of the language if not a problematic request in its own
right. :-)
