Drawbacks with DllStructs as general data container

[monoceres]

Are there any real drawbacks with using DllStructs as general data storage?

I had some problems before ticket 92 was fixed, but now I don't have any problems.

My main reason for using them is to easily share data between scripts and dll's and for easy saving of my data to files using _WinAPI_CreateFile().

Input?

Yes. They are purely for passing/receiving data and DllCall. Using them for general storage is not something we would test/support. So if we change the internals at some point then any scripts relying on some quirk of DllStruct as general storage may break.
