 Forums >>  Brainstorms - General  >>  Help needed in recognizing a Delphi data type

Topic created on: February 19, 2011 00:11 CST by ResearchAviator .

Has anybody seen similar structure while reversing a Delphi sample. It looks like some sort of structure of this type:

Struct
{
    int len;
    char[] text;
}some_struct;

Is there any built in data type in Delphi that looks like this?

CODE:004546EC some_struct dd 0FFFFFFFFh           ; _top
CODE:004546EC                 32                   ; Len
CODE:004546EC                 'c:\WINDOWS\system32\scvshost.exe',0; Text
CODE:00454715                 align

Yes, Delphi String.

"Hello World!" = -1, 0x0C, 'Hello World!'
