You'd do something like this:

    System_Array *array;
    ILUInt16 *buf;

    /* Allocate the "invalidPathChars" array */
    array = (System_Array *)ILExecThreadNew(thread, "[c", "(Ti)V",
                                            (ILVaInt)length);
    if(!array)
    {
        /* Bail out if out of memory */
        return;
    }
    info->invalidPathChars = (ILObject *)array.

    /* Fill the "invalidPathChars" array with the invalid characters */
    buf = (ILUInt16 *)(ArrayToBuffer(array));
    /* ... write the 16-bit characters to buf ... */

Where "length" is the number of invalid characters in the array that
you wish to create.

Cheers,

Rhys.
