Provides Beef bindings for the nethost/hostfxr libraries which allow you to host the dotnet runtime in a beef-application and invoke managed methods from native code.
Note: The bindings are currently only for 64bit Windows but adding support for other platforms should be fairly easy.
This repository contains an example project which initalizes the dotnet runtime and invokes managed methods. It is configured to automatically compile the C# project alongside the beef project. In order to start the example you have to have the dotnet-cli installed (i.e. the command dotnet has to be available in cmd)
As starting points for more information about using the nethost library refer to the native hosting design document and how to write a custom .NET host to control the .NET runtime from your native code.
Before you can use the bindings you have to download the Microsoft.NETCore.App.Host nuget-package for your target platform. The repository also contains a powershell-script which downloads the x64-win package and unzips it to the correct location.
If you download it manually simply open the nuget-package as a zip-file and extract its contents to NetHostBeef/nethost.
