<p class="p3">Well, for C see above on the D side:</p>
<p class="p4"><br></p>
<p class="p3"> extern(C) {</p>
<p class="p3"> result myfunc(double x, double y, const char *text, stuff *myStuff, bool measureOnly);</p>
<p class="p3"> }</p>
<p class="p5"><br></p>
<p class="p6">Shouldn't the result be a pointer?</p>
<p class="p7"><br></p>
<p class="p8">Indeed. And you know what? That was causing the problem.</p>
<p class="p7"><br></p>
<p class="p8">So, having a wrong return-type here, resulted in the const char *text parameter always being NULL. Not sure I understand the relation but looks strange to me... at least not very obvious.</p>
