I think you can try to use .NET bindings
(DotNET_Framework_Support.zip) created by David Gancarz:

http://dl.maptools.org/dl/shapelib/contrib/

I've not used them, but comparing Shapelib 1.2.10 date and date of this
 Zip archive, I believe it's up to date.

Second option is to wrap Shapelib calls with P/Invoke.
