Hi experts,<br />
<br />
I am trying to figure out a way to use the opencv libraries in C#. I asked this question on a public board and part of the response included the following:<br />
&nbsp;<br />
&quot;For instance, you could build a managed (or native) C wrapper based on the OpenCV<br />
facedetect.c sample (<a href="http://opencvlibrary.sourceforge.net/FaceDetection" rel="ugc">http://opencvlibrary.sourceforge.net/FaceDetection</a>)&quot;<br />
<br />
Can anyone help me understand how to do this? I understand the basic concept of a wrapper but haven't written one before. I really need a walkthrough here. I am an experienced Java programmer but completely new to the .NET framework and C# language.<br />
<br />
thanks!

Using unmanaged C code in C#

C# is an object-oriented programming language created in conjunction with Microsoft’s .NET framework. Compilation is usually done into the Microsoft Intermediate Language (MSIL), which is then JIT-compiled to native code (and cached) during execution in the Common Language Runtime (CLR).
