First off, I recommend that you buy Ronn's book. Although it deals with C,
I think you will find it invaluable. I have.
I have a simple example of calling C++ code from IDL which I put together a
while back for another newsgroupie. I never heard back from him so I don't
know how helpful it was but I will send it to you directly. Hopefully it
will help you get started.
