How to have string as a prototype type?

For some reason, prototypes do not work if they are of a string type. However, regular callfunction(fast) works. Have anybody else experience the same?

Code: Select all
Prototype.s ProtoA()
Procedure.s A()
ProcedureReturn "Works!"
EndProcedure
PtrA.ProtoA = @A()

It works from the main program, but I assumed he meant calling a function from a dll, where you still have to use PeekS() to get at a returned string. The prototype will successfully get floats, etc. from dlls but not strings.
