Accessing 32-bit DLLs from 64-bit code

Written By M.L on வெள்ளி, 5 ஆகஸ்ட், 2011 | ஆகஸ்ட் 05, 2011

We need to extract data from Lotus Notes database (which is 32 bit) and also need to retrieve data from SharePoint (which is 64 bit), from a single application running on 64 bit target platform on Win 7.

We are not able to perform both 32 bit and 64 bit operations in a 64 bit application.

Finally after so much google-ing, we found that the only way communication can happen between 32-bit and 64-bit modules is through interprocess communication (IPC).
In other words, 32-bit and 64-bit processes can exchange data using IPC techniques such as out-of-process COM, sockets, Windows messages or memory mapped files.

If anyone has implemented this, kindly share your understanding or a sample code. Any help will be appreciated!
