Citrix Virtual Channel SDK-如何从ICA客户端向服务器返回字符串值？

Question

I'm using XenDesktop 5.6 (server) and Citrix Receiver 3.6 (client). I've used the Virtual Channel SDK to create a channel between server and client and pass C-style structures back and forth, using the examples found here . I can easily pass simple numeric types (USHORT, etc.) between client and server just by setting the appropriate structure field (eg g_pMixHd->dwRetVal = 1 ) but I cannot do the same with string types (LPBYTES, PSZ, PUCHAR). I have tried allocating memory on client and/or server, updating the structure's length field and other approaches but nothing seems to work.

All I want to do is have my client assign a simple ANSI/ASCII string in the receiving structure and have it passed back to the server. Has anybody done this? Can you help?

Without seeing more details, I'll gues that this is probably because you're using pointer-based strings.

Let's say you have a C structure that has a string member. That member should not be a string, rather it should be a byte array, and you should copy the string into the byte array before sending the packet.
