Given the following Delphil DLL declaration
function csd_HandleData(aBuf: PChar; aLen: integer): integer; stdcall;
what would be the VB6 declaration to use it?
I've tried a variety of declarations, e.g.
Declare Function csd_HandleData Lib "chsdet.dll" (ByVal aBuf As String, ByVal aLen As Integer)
Declare Function csd_HandleData Lib "chsdet.dll" (aBuf As Long, ByVal aLen As Integer)
Declare Function csd_HandleData Lib "chsdet.dll" (aBuf As Byte, ByVal aLen As Integer)
with the relevant code to suit the parameters, but nothing seems to work, i.e. the Delphi debugger says I have a too-largish value in aLen and a null string in aBuf.
I am working toward using a TypeLib to drive the connection, but was prototyping with Declares.

try
Seems you forgot the return value.
