thanks, but i tried this:
__declspec(dllexport) int testFuncString(LPTSTR i, LPTSTR o,int size)
{
int l=0;
char *temp;
temp=malloc(size*sizeof(char));
memset(temp,0,size);

WideCharToMultiByte(CP_ACP,0,i,-1,temp,size,NULL,NULL);
printf("%s\n",temp);

MultiByteToWideChar(CP_ACP,0,temp,-1,o,size);
return 0;

}


i'm trying to call it dotnet 2.0 with this signature:
[DllImport("TestJNI.dll",CharSet=CharSet.Auto)]
static extern int testFuncString(string
i,[Out,MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPTStr)] StringBuilder o, int size);

StringBuilder s = new StringBuilder();
s.Length = 10;
string i = "Testing";
testFuncString(i,s,i.Length);


but in the printf i see some gibbirsh after the original string, like i
doesn't stop there.
