This blog is a depository for things I have found regarding VB.NET and C#.NET development (and other things I may need to remember). This blog is primarily for my own reference, but if the information I found is useful to others, then that is great. If others want to contribute with comments or other information, then that is great too.
But I guess let me explain the problem I'm having..
I need to pass a list of strings to a C function. And in C, in order to do that, I need a char[][]. How do I put a list of strings in C# to an array that C understands?? (C, not C++).
In C#, for example,
I can do listName[index].ToCharArray() for each string, but how do I put the entire list in a array so I can pass it to a C function?

A wormed Thanks 2 u.
Is there such thing as 2-dim char array in C#?
For example,
char[][] name ?
If so, how do I initialize it?
I tried
char[][] name = new char[10][10];
but it didn't work.
Thanks.
(The only reason I even try to use 2-dim char array is I need to pass something to a C function.)
Yes, the syntax is a little different from C++:
char[,] name = new char[10,10];
Thank you...

Please help. Thanks.
I tried this:
char[][] name = new char[][] { new char[10], new char[20]};
for (int i = 0; i < M_strListChosenColName.Count; i++)
{
name[i] = m_strListChosenColName[i].ToCharArray();
}
But when I tried to pass in "name", I got an error something about no marshaling support for nested array???
Help please!! Totally new to C#!
var mask= new[] { 'a', 'b', 'c' };
