What is a String in Testand

[penguinman23]

I need to pass Strings to and from a dot net dll from testand.

The String could be a Testand "String" or a dot net "String",

Or a proper string (array of char).

It doesnt matter.

I require some mechanism for getting an array of chars from my dll to a result "String".

Cheers

Hi,

If you are needing to pass an array of chars from a dll to TestStand. you can retrieve this array as a string in TestStand.  The example located at: C:\Program Files\National Instruments\TestStand 3.5\Examples\AccessingArrays has a step called "Get String Array" that shows how to retrieve this array of chars in TestStand.  Take a look at this example and let me know if you have any questions.
