Hi,
I'm using a c++ dll file in order to execute some functions,
I'm blocked in this function :

BOOL CLIENT_CapturePicture(
  LONG       hPlayHandle,
  const char *pchPicFileName
);

I'm trying this code but it's not working :

[DllImport("dhnetsdk.dll", CharSet = CharSet.Ansi)]
public static extern bool CLIENT_CapturePicture
    (long hPlayHandle,
    [MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPStr)]
    string pchPicFileName);

Please Help me :) &thx

int

in c#, Thanks :-O

Solution 1

I think you need the Marshal.StringToHGlobalAnsi Method.
