Description Jun Yue Liu CLA 2010-12-15 22:50:07 EST 
Build Identifier: SWT 3.6.1

Due to a wrong flag in safeArrary was set, the safeArrary is not passed cross process successfully.

safeArray.fFeatures = OS.FADF_FIXEDSIZE | OS.FADF_HAVEVARTYPE

Actually the safeArray contain VT_UI1 but not VT_VARIANT, so the flag OS.FADF_HAVEVARTYPE should not be set up.

Without the flag, the function work well for in-process and out-of-process COM communication.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Run Snippet330 with SWT IE browser (in-process), and IBM XPD browser (support both in-process and out-of-process)
