Re: [Pnet-developers] String marshalling

[Marcus]

According to my docs, CharSet.Unicode will ``Marshal strings as Unicode 2-byte 
characters.''

Under Windows, using the CharSet attribute on the DllImport affects all string 
arguments. It is also possible to use the MarshalAs attribute if you want 
affect how strings are marshaled on a per-parameter basis.

Another consideration in that using CharSet on a Dllimport attribute is 
supposed to cause a "W" or "A" to be appended to the entry point name, at 
least under Windows.
