RE: char[4] data type in c for storing IPs - VB.NET equivalence

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

'unsigned char' is Byte in VB.
As an example, the equivalent to the following C++:
unsigned char test[4];
is:
Dim test(3) As Byte

Hi everyone:
i read from the documentation of a dll that there is a struct that uses
char[4] for storing an IP address. How can it be? and how come i can get to
representate the same value in a string VB.NET data type, knowing that this
is its equivalence (for char4)?
Next is the data type definition


'''unsigned char[4]

<System.Runtime.InteropServices.MarshalAsAttribute(System.Runtime.InteropServices.UnmanagedType.ByValTStr, SizeConst:=4)> _

Public IP As String



Thanks very much for your help!
