User-Defined Field Types:

None.

Notes:

The winmm dll may not execute properly on 64-bit systems. Consequently, the StructLayout must be Sequential, with CharSet = Ansi, and Pack = 4. This particular type has some special layout considerations (the c union keyword) which typically means developers would use the explicit layout. However, the explicit layout breaks down on 64-bit systems for any type with an IntPtr in the type. Consequently, the C# types have been redesigned to use Sequential layout so that they will automatically adjust to 64-bit systems. This means private fields with public properties which perform the gunky work of making it look like there is a union.
