DllImportAttribute.EntryPoint Field

Indicates the name or ordinal of the DLL entry point to be called.

[Visual Basic]
Public EntryPoint As String
[C#]
public string EntryPoint;
[C++]
public: String* EntryPoint;
[JScript]
public var EntryPoint : String;

Remarks

You can specify the entry-point name by supplying a string indicating the name of the DLL containing the entry point, or you can identify the entry point by its ordinal. Ordinals are prefixed with the # sign, for example, #1. If you omit this field, the common language runtime uses the name of the .NET method marked with the DllImportAttribute.

For additional information, see Identifying Functions in DLLs. For examples showing how to use the EntryPoint field, see Specifying an Entry Point.
