Using CAL from .NET

Having problems with .NET + CAL

Hello. I'm trying to use CAL from MS .NET. I'm new to GPU programming, thus I started with "hellocal" example.

I made managed C++ DLL-project with following code:

 

#include "stdafx.h"
#include
#include
#include "calcl.h"
#include

using namespace System;

#pragma unmanaged

// CAL Testing...
std::string programIL = 
"il_ps_2_0\n"
"dcl_input_interp(linear) v0.xy\n"
"dcl_output_generic o0\n"
"dcl_cb cb0[1]\n"
"dcl_resource_id(0)_type(2d,unnorm)_fmtx(float)_fmty(float)_fmtz(float)_fmtw(float)\n"
"sample_resource(0)_sampler(0) r0, v0.xyxx\n"
"mul o0, r0, cb0[0]\n"
"ret_dyn\n"
"end\n";

extern "C" __declspec(dllexport) void CAL_Test()
{
    // Here goes code from hellocal's main();

}

#pragma managed

// Some .NET code;

 

It compiles successfully, and CAL_Test() Procedure can be called normally (I tried it on general C++.NET console application).

But when I try to use this assembly form C# project, I got an error:

Invalid Buffer, unable to write to file
Fatal Error: Translator succeeded but returned null pointer
Fatal Error: Failed to compile program with IL front-end compiler!
Program compilation failed. Exiting.

Corresponding C#-code:

using Mg2Umg_Test;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;

namespace ConsoleApplication1
{
 class Program
 {
  [DllImport(@"D:\Projects\C++\Mg2Umg_Test\Debug\Mg2Umg_Test.dll")]
  public static extern void CAL_Test();

  static void Main(string[] args)
  {
  CAL_Test();
  }
 }
}

What do I do wrong? How can I make possible to use CAL form .NET application?
