 The reason why it is not allowed to return a string allocated with, for instance, \lstinline[language=C]!malloc! is that there is no transfer of ownership when a string is returned from the external function.
 The external code would remain the owner of such a string, and would be responsible for eventually releasing the memory at some point.
-Consequently, the Modelica simulation environment would not be able to assume that all only its own string deallocation routines could invalidate any of the strings returned by external functions.

 \lstinline!Boolean! values are mapped to C such that \lstinline!false! in Modelica is 0 in C and \lstinline!true! in Modelica is 1 in C.  If the returned value from C is 0 it is treated as \lstinline!false! in Modelica; otherwise as \lstinline!true!.
