Hi Lalit,

This is not really the group to ask this question - as it doesn't have
anything to do with python.NET.

But other then that I can answer your question I think :-)

You say a "C++ DLL". First thing is you need to make sure that your
functions are correctly exported in an 'unmangled' form. 

What I do for this is the following:

// create a macro DLLEXPORT for those methods you want to export
#define  DLLEXPORT   extern "C" __declspec(dllexport)

// the following may be optional - but can make things easier
#define  VB 	__stdcall

// add the macro to your function prototypes
DLLEXPORT int VB InitDialogFromFile   (char const *const fileName);

// in the CPP file define your function as you would normally do int VB
InitDialogFromFile(char const * const fileName) {
	//FUNC BODY
}

You may also need to create a .def file

; Declares the module parameters for the DLL.
NAME MyCPPDll.dll
DESCRIPTION  'Description of your DLL'
EXPORTS
	// the following line can be used to rename exports
	//InitDialogFromFile_renamed = InitDialogFromFile
	InitDialogFromFile

Once you add that to the project - it will make sure that no mangling
happens (sometimes even after doing extern "C" you still get a leading
underscore!)
