Dll

[Jedhi]

I want to make a DLL that can be used by any platform (that is windows xp, linux etc.). Should I use the Class Library to make a DLL ? And does it matter whether I use to write in C# or C++ ?

If you wrap you dll in a Webservice then any language that can use web services can use your "dll". Be aware though how you serialize objects for consumption in Java.

Here is a few good links for doing the above.
