How can I initialize dialog based MFC application (i.e. implicitly call MFC application InitInstance() method) when any test method defined in MFC application is called from .NET client via C++/CLI.
I have dialog based MFC application and I am able to successfully call test method defined in MFC Application from .NET client via C++/CLI, but unable to get MFC application InitInstance() method called implicitly.
Please guide me.

Thanks.

You dont have to call InitInstance explicit, but some initialize code for starting up the MFC runtime with AfxWinInit. In both link are interesting code snippets which should solve your issue.

To open a dialog:

C++

CMyDialog dlg;
dlg.DoModal();
