InstallAware

Hi,
this procedure

procedure MyStringFunction(var AString: PAnsiChar); stdcall;
begin
AString := 'some string';
end;

exported in a DLL, works with Installaware "Call DLL" - BUT! the word "some string" is not returned - just garbage. What am I doing wrong?

I haven't touched Delphi yet myself, but what if you call that procedure from within a Delphi app to test it?

From the looks of it, you'll want to use a function, not a procedure.

Hopefully that gets you pointed in the right direction.
