Re:Conversion/equivalent of char or char * (C++) in Delphi

If the DLL returns a char *** it returns a pointer to a ONE-dimensional
PChar array, which you can define as:

type
PPCharArr = ^TPCharArr;
TPCharArr = array[0..MaxInt div SizeOf(PChar) - 1] of PChar;

procedure GetPCharArr(var P: PPCharArr);

type
PPChar = ^PChar;

procedure GetPCharArr(var P: PPChar);
