unmanaged structs in struct with c#

[juergen]

Hello everyone,

I can't get that to work and I don't know why.
Simplified I have the following structs (Just a snip):

typedef struct
{
char* name;
int type;
Parameters1 otherStruct;
Parameters2 otherStruct2;
unsigned int lastUsed;
} TestStruct,*PTestStruct;

typedef struct Parameters1
{
Parameters3 otherStruct3;
Parameters4 otherStruct4
}Parameters1;

.......

I tried this C# class for that:

[StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential)]
public class TestStruct
{
[MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPStr)] public string name;
public int type;
public Parameters1 otherStruct;
public Parameters2 otherStruct2
public uint lastUsed;
}
But it doesn't work.
Any idea what's going wrong here?
Thanks.

In what way is it failing?

The application just terminates when I call the method that has this struct as parameter.
