There is no VAR keyword in C - but if MS declares a parameter as OUT, you don't have to initialize it before calling the function. >> It is a pointer to a PChar. > > But PChar is a pointer, isn't it? :-) > What I want to point out is that the parametera are different as usual > when a > pre-dimensioned buffer is passed. If you translate that to Pascal/Delphi, you get FUNCTION xyz(OUT P: PChar) That's not so unusual for me. >> GlobalFree? > > I don't know. For another function of the same library Why not just call it and see if it returns an error?
