call F# dll in C#

Question

How can I create F# dll and call it in C#? Thank you

Answer 1

To create a DLL in F#, you should set the output type to class library in project properties. Use Add Reference dialog as mentioned before to add the reference in your C# project.

Answer 2

There's no real trick; like

only the other way around. One thing to note is that if you don't specify a namespace in the F# code, all your top-level definitions by default end up in a module with the name of the file, so if you have Program.fs then you may reference Program.Whatever from C#.

Answer 3

If you are using the latest version, all you should need to do is set the project type to 'F# Library' when you create the project.
