I'm working with C# and .Net. Doesn't the .Net enviornment consider
fbclient.dll an unmanaged API?

If so, I need to use the DllImportAttribute function to access the Dll
which requires me to assign an exported function to the attribute, but
which exported function can I link to so I can load the library? If
you know of a way to do this in C# and .Net, please advise.

Thank you.
