Unmanaged method member being used as a delegate in managed class - callback

Question

I have a project where I am expanding existing native C++ compatible code functionality for a customer-facing library by integrating a driver from a managed DLL, which seems like the opposite direction for most marshaling questions. Since there can be multiple devices using this one driver, each device needs to be its own object, with its own callback methods. This integration will take the form of a native wrapper DLL that exposes the native class interface to the customer-facing library, which will pass an instance of a member method callback function pointer to the DLL. I need to pass a native method member instance (non-static) as a delegate to the managed wrapper class. The managed wrapper class uses GetDelegateForFunctionPointer, which works to marshal static native pointers to a delegate, but I can't find any information if it works with instances. GetDelegateForFunctionPointer also takes a System::IntPtr argument for the function pointer, but I'm also not sure if System::IntPtr works for instances, and when compiling in VC++2008 I'm being presented an error C3867 for attempting this.
