  • CsWin32

    A source generator to add a user-defined set of Win32 P/Invoke methods and supporting types to a C# project.

    Would something like CsWin32 help?

  • cppcomponents

    You may find https://github.com/jbandela/cppcomponents useful. A portable C++11 library allowing COM components to be created from a C++ library. Note the portable, you can 100% make COM components on POSIX as well.

  • CppSharp

    Tools and libraries to glue C/C++ APIs to high-level languages

    I would give CppSharp a crack first. It generates a .net wrapper using pinvoke.
