The caller is responsible for freeing the result, so it will destroy your internal data. I think you should create an array here and not use it to store the data internally.
How do you know that the caller is responsible for freeing this property?
That's how out and retval values work in OLE automation, you wouldn't be able to control their life time otherwise. As a test, you may add VariantClear call in your tests and see how things will work.
It seems wasteful to duplicate this potentially large buffer.
I agree, but we can't redesign the API.
