Hi
One more thing along the lines of wrappered .NET code and the ActiveState perlNET SDK: .NET supports reflection, so you might be able to write a .NET COM-exposed dll 'reflector' that you access thru OLE. The 'reflector' would take as input your 3rd party dll, and return an object that wrappers your 3rd party code. It's more work, but it's also more general than wrappering every method you want to expose. I suspect that's what perlNET from AS does under the hood (with a lot more syntactical sugar thrown in).

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
