That is very interesting knowledge. Thanks!

So in general, one should not use managed types in the prototype of an
exported (public) function? While I do know that the other language
can't do anything useful with it, my thought was that it would be
possible to pass along these managed types (especially string, as it is
a pointer internally) to another pascal function (a callback in my case).
