Serializing array of struct

[Olav Langeland]

I have a structure like this:

[StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential, Pack=1, CharSet=CharSet.Ansi)]
public struct MyStruct
{
public long lVal;
public short sVal;
}

The structure is used like this:

MyStruct[] myArr = new MyStruct[5];

How can I serialize this array of structs into a byte-array?

For example, if I try to do this:

int rawsize = Marshal.SizeOf(myArr); // fails

then I get the following error message:

{"Type SingleTargetTupleSingle[] can not be marshaled as an unmanaged structure;
no meaningful size or offset can be computed." }

Any suggestions?
