How to call a function in a Delphi DLL from C# - PChar as parameter

2 New Member
I have a Delphi DLL function:
function GetMyNickName(aMyName: PChar): PChar; stdcall;

This will return my nickname.

In ASP.NET, C#:
[DllImport("TestDLL.dll", EntryPoint = "GetMyNickName",
ExactSpelling = false, CallingConvention = CallingConvention.Cdecl)]
static extern string GetMyNickName(string aMyName);


In the button on click event:

string myName;
string myNickName;

myName = "John Smith";
myNickName = GetMyNickName(myName);
Response.Write(myNickName);

I got a runtime error:
A call to PInvoke function 'App_Web_ojpwdprl!Default2::GetMyNickName' has unbalanced the stack. This is likely because the managed PInvoke signature does not match the unmanaged target signature. Check that the calling convention and parameters of the PInvoke signature match the target unmanaged signature.

Anyone has idea?

Thanks
