Do I spot a 'VFP' mindset here :-}.
C (and large junks of the windows API) regularly make use of out and ref parameters - even when a structure is used it is often returned as an out parameter. In these cases the main parameter is usually simply a success/fail indicator.
What do you think is wrong with this approach?
