           Summary: Marshalling arrays of COM interfaces doesn't work
    Classification: Mono
           Product: Mono: Runtime
           Version: SVN
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Ubuntu
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P5 - None
         Component: interop

When passing an array of COM interfaces from managed code to unmanaged the
unmanaged code receives garbage.

Example of IDL:
HRESULT Something([in] int cTests, [in, size_is(cTests)] ITest** pTests);



Interop defined like:
[MethodImpl(MethodImplOptions.InternalCall,
MethodCodeType=MethodCodeType.Runtime)]

public virtual extern void Something(int cTests,
[MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPArray, SizeParamIndex=0)] ITest[] tests);



Called from C# like:

ITest[] tests = new ITest[2];
tests[0] = new TestClass();
tests[1] = new TestClass();
p.Something(2, tests);


C++ implementation of Something:
HRESULT __stdcall CoCOMServer::Something(int cTests, ITest** pTests)

{

    for (int i = 0; i < cTests; i++)

        pTests[i]->Test(i);

    return S_OK;

}


This crashes in CoCOMServer::Something when it tries to access the pTests
array.
