GeneralInsanely simple interop question. Pin

All I want to do is:

I want to make a win32 DLL that takes two LPWSTR's. One [in], one [out]. That's ALL! The problem is, when I call it from C#, the out string is always unchanged. I know this must be simple to do- interop can't suck this bad. Here is my code:

/// In the DLL:

extern "C" {

__declspec(dllexport) void transformIt(LPWSTR,[out] LPWSTR);

void transformIt(LPWSTR markup,[out] LPWSTR changed) {
changed= L"SOME STUFF";
}
}

// The Interop and the call:
[System.Runtime.InteropServices.DllImportAttribute("mydll.dll")]
private static extern void transformIt(
[MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPWStr)] string markup,
[Out,MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPWStr)] out string changed) ;

string stuff="wefwefw";
string changed; //also tried string changed="",changed=null, and a StringBuilder
transformIt( stuff, out changed);
Console.WriteLine(" >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> " + changed); //empty


I've tried this with a StringBuilder, I've tried with "ref" instead of an "out". No error is thrown, even when I do a try catch block. I know it's finding the DLL ok, becaause I made another test method that just returns an int and it worked. why why why why why why why

Please tell me it's me that sucks and not interop.
