Callbacks and Managed Code

[Spyder]

I am trying to wrap a very old dll from Epson with a Managed Dll.
Their declaration for the callback is this:

typedef int (WINAPI* DLL_BiSetStatus BackFunction)(i nt, int (CALLBACK EXPORT
*pStatusCB)(DWO RD dwStatus));

but when I compile it, I get the following errors:

Error 1 error C2143: syntax error : missing ')' before
'*' c:\lennys\alvor dtech\posprinte r\posprinter\PO SPrinter.h 48
Error 2 error C2143: syntax error : missing ',' before
'*' c:\lennys\alvor dtech\posprinte r\posprinter\PO SPrinter.h 48
Warning 3 warning C4229: anachronism used : modifiers on data are
ignored c:\lennys\alvor dtech\posprinte r\posprinter\PO SPrinter.h 48
Error 4 error C2059: syntax error :
')' c:\lennys\alvor dtech\posprinte r\posprinter\PO SPrinter.h 48
Error 5 error C2091: function returns
function c:\lennys\alvor dtech\posprinte r\posprinter\PO SPrinter.h 48

Obviously, the syntax has changed.
All of the non-callback functions are declared as follows:

typedef int (WINAPI* DLL_BiOpenMonPr inter)(int, LPSTR);
typedef int (WINAPI* DLL_BiSetMonInt erval)(int, WORD, WORD);

These work fine when I use LoadLibrary and GetProcAddress.
Does anyone know the proper syntax for the callback?

Steve,

You may want to consider posting your question to the C++ language
newsgroup microsoft.publi c.dotnet.langua ges.vc instead.
