Byte Formats Supported in the Marshaller (Cont.)

DWORDSTR Sequence of DWORD's whose element count is <= 64K.
QWORDSTR Sequence of QWORD's whose element count is <= 64K.

Sequence of WORD's whose element count is <= 64K.
Large sequence of BYTE's whose element count can be >
64K (larger version of BYTESTR).
A structure containing one or more fields. Each element
within a structure is self-descriptive and can be any of the
types in this table.
Byte indicator for end of structure - not really a data type pre-
fix.
Array of any one of the types in this table whose element-
count can be > 64K. Each element in an array is selfdescrip-
tive.The type of the first element (byte after LengthLSB) is
the type of the entire array.
Byte indicator for space to be skipped in the input and
NULL'ed in the marshalled output. This can be viewed as a
NULL data type prefix.
