So, here's your disclaimer: I'm an idiot, have absolutely no programming experience with DLLs, consider them black vodoo magic vastly beyond my abilities, and should
probably not answer.
But did you know about _chr?
_chr(STRING* string);
Converts a STRING to a null-terminated character array; sometimes useful for functions called from external languages.
Parameters:
string - STRING* or char* pointer to be converted.
Returns:
char* - pointer to the char array contained in the STRING*.
Speed:
Fast
Remarks:
This function automatically detects whether its argument is a STRING* or a char*; the char* string must be null-terminated and contain at least 3 characters.
Example:
my_dll_function(_chr(pMyString));
(for completeness' sake, there's also _str, which turns a char*-string to a STRING*-string)
Again, I'm not building on any kind of experience here, so apologies if this doesn't help at all. It did kinda fit the question, though
