You can treat them as Serial port

How to do this in c#? Is there any Namespase or thrd party dll available?

How I can trace the error through source codes while I am using dll file ?

I think the source codes don't have error

• Defining the fields in the struct in a different order definitely won't work. You need to declare in the same order (hopefully the reason for this is obvious).
• You've defined it as a class in C#, not a struct. I think you need it to be a struct, even though it's a pointer type declaration in C++. You might even need to declare it IntPtr and use Marshal methods to make a struct out of it.
• What is DGNHandle? That C++ function definition isn't valid unless it's a macro.

[DllImport("DgnLib.dll", EntryPoint = "DGNReadElement")]
        public static extern IntPtr DGNReadElement(IntPtr DGNHandle);

        public static DGNElemCore ReadElement(IntPtr DGNHandle)
        {

            DGNElemCore element = new DGNElemCore ();
            IntPtr itr = DGNReadElement(DGNHandle);

            element = (DGNElemCore)Marshal.PtrToStructure(itr, typeof(DGNElemCore)); // throw the exception

            return element;

        }

__declspec(dllexport) DGNElemCore CPL_DLL *DGNReadElement( DGNHandle );

struct DGNElemText
{
   .....

   char text[1]; /*!< Actual text (length varies, \0   terminated*/ 

   ....
}

[StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential)]
public class DGNElemText
{
   .....

   IntPtr text; 
}

[MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.ByValTStr, SizeConst = 1)]
public string text;
