c# string to unmanaged c++ dll
<p>I need to write something like</p>

<pre><code>switch (nameOfType) 
{
  case "burk":
    return "zzzz";
</code></pre>

<p>in my c++ DLL (I need this to compare type names)</p>

<p>Where nameOfType is a string that came from c# (via DLLImport)
but I am quite new in c++ - what type I must use to operate in c++ with strings the same way as it is in c#?</p>
