I'm using C# Marshal.PtrToStringUni(IntPtr) to read data from Sql Server It returns Latin characters but doesn't give Unicode character correctly. For Unicode character I see some garbage I'm missing some conversion?

Don't you mean


    PtrToStringAnsi

instead? Latin encoded strings are 8bit, Unicode strings are 16bit.


    PtrToStringAnsi

expects 8bit input,


    PtrToStringUni

expects 16bit input. If the data is returned as 8bit,


    PtrToStringAnsi

would be more appropriate. – Remy Lebeau Mar 14, 2017 at 15:52
