Thank you for the help, that worked. I don't want to use cgo directly because of the compile overhead and because cgo prevents debugging on Windows.
Another question, if there is a C function with the declaration: void returnOutCString(char ** out) I can call the function using: var retPtr unsafe.Pointer proc.Call(uintptr(retPtr)) But how do I convert retPtr to a Go String?
