Where to put DllImport?

问题:

static class Class    
{
    public static void methodRequiringStuffFromKernel32()
    {
        // code here...
    }
} 

Where do I put [DllImport("Kernel32.dll")] here?

回答1:

You put it on the method you're importing from Kernel32.dll.

For example,

static class Class    
{
    [DllImport("Kernel32.dll")]
    static extern Boolean Beep(UInt32 frequency, UInt32 duration);

    public static void methodRequiringStuffFromKernel32()
    {
        // code here...
        Beep(...);
    }
}

From @dtb: Note that the class should be named NativeMethods, SafeNativeMethods or UnsafeNativeMethods. See Naming Convention for Unmanaged Code Methods for more details.

CA1060: Move P/Invokes to NativeMethods class:

• NativeMethods - This class does not suppress stack walks for unmanaged code permission. (System.Security.SuppressUnmanagedCodeSecurityAttribute must not be applied to this class.) This class is for methods that can be used anywhere because a stack walk will be performed.

• SafeNativeMethods - This class suppresses stack walks for unmanaged code permission. (System.Security.SuppressUnmanagedCodeSecurityAttribute is applied to this class.) This class is for methods that are safe for anyone to call. Callers of these methods are not required to perform a full security review to make sure that the usage is secure because the methods are harmless for any caller.

• UnsafeNativeMethods - This class suppresses stack walks for unmanaged code permission. (System.Security.SuppressUnmanagedCodeSecurityAttribute is applied to this class.) This class is for methods that are potentially dangerous. Any caller of these methods must perform a full security review to make sure that the usage is secure because no stack walk will be performed.

This is an example of DllImport:

using System;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;

class MsgBoxTest
{
  [DllImport("user32.dll")]
  static extern int MessageBox (IntPtr hWnd, string text, string caption,
                                int type);
  public static void Main()
  {
    MessageBox (IntPtr.Zero, "Please do not press this again.", "Attention", 0);
  }
}

I suggest you to study Platform Invoke Tutorial.

回答3:

static class Class    
{
    [DllImport("kerynel32.dll")]
    public static extern void methodRequiringStuffFromKernel32();

}

It goes on the method itself that's P/Invoking outside methods. Make sure to add a reference to System.Runtime.InteropServices
