When accessing an c_char_Array, IronPython immediately returns the value of the array as a string, whereas cpython returns the object; in order to access the string, one needs to dereference the string via .value<br /><br />Example:<br />Imagine the following definition for ctypes:<br /><br />ARNameType = c_char * 255<br />class ARNameList(Structure):<br /> _fields_ = [<br /> # ar.h 329<br /> ('numItems', c_uint),<br /> ('nameList', POINTER(ARNameType)),<br />]<br /><br />The variable result holds such an ARNameList.<br />CPython:<br />>>> result<br /><pyars._cars7604.ARNameList object at 0x029E03A0><br />>>> result.nameList<br /><__main__.LP_c_char_Array_255 object at 0x029D69E0><br />>>> result.nameList[0]<br /><__main__.c_char_Array_255 object at 0x029D6C60><br />>>> result.nameList[0].value<br />'Distributed Mapping'<br /><br />IronPython:<br />>>> result<br /><ARNameList object at 0x000000000000002F><br />>>> result.nameList<br /><LP_c_char_Array_255 object at 0x0000000000000031><br />>>> result.nameList[0]<br />'Distributed Mapping'"</p></div><div class="topic"><a name="toc_issue_3"></a><div class="topicHeader"><span class="topicTitle">3.
