Loader lock error

Question

I am building on C++ dll, by writing code in C#.

I get an error, saying

LoaderLock was detected Message: Attempting managed execution insid

Answer 1

I'm building a C++ CLR DLL (MSVS2015) that has to make calls into an unmanaged DLL and define unmanaged code. I use #pragma managed and #pragma unmanaged to control what mode it is in for a given area of the code.

In my case I simply put #pragma unmanaged in front of my DllMain() and this solved the problem. It seemed to be thinking I wanted a managed version of DllMain().
