C++ DLL accessing Delphi strings

[Ross Levis]

I've adding a plugin DLL interface to my Delphi app so 3rd party DLL's can 
utilize functions in my app.  I'm not going to change pascal strings into 
pChars just to suit C++ developers so I need to write the documentation 
describing a record structure containing strings for a C++ developer.

I know very little about the C language.  Can someone confirm if I have this 
right please.

MyRecord = packed record
  Artist: String;
  Title: String;
  Duration: Integer;
  Year: Word;
  Gender: ShortInt;
  BPM: Byte;
  Cuedb: SmallInt;
  Cue: LongWord;
end;

typedef struct {
  int StringLen;   
  char String;
} delphistring;

typedef struct{
  delphistring *Artist;
  delphistring *Title;
  int Duration;
  unsigned short Year;
  signed char Gender;
  unsigned char Byte;
  short Cuedb;
  unsigned long Cue;
} MyRecord;

Many thanks,
Ross.
