.NET Forum / .NET Framework / Interop / December 2004Returning char* as string
As I understood, when returning System.String with interop, .NET tries to delete it with CoTaskMemFree(). But, this char* points to permanent part of memory, and should not be deleted. Is it possible to disable this behaviour (with some marshal attribute maybe)? I know I can return IntPtr, but I want cleaner solution if possible ;) >Is it possible to disable >this behaviour (with some marshal attribute maybe)? No, changing the return type to IntPtr is the way to do it.
