How do I marshal a struct with a pointer to another struct (from C++ to C#)

Greetings!

As tittle says, I need to marshal an struct within a pointer to another struct (actually,. a vector to another struct). That one is got after certain message (related question here), with it address as LParam.

It definition is in a .dll file made by a thirdparty (dont have source code), made in C++. Here's an example:

typedef struct _cImage
{
  BYTE *Buffer;
  int Lenght;
} cImage;

typedef struct _Images
{
  DWORD DocID;
  cImage *Imgs;
  BOOL Enabled;
} Images;

According to manual...

Quote:

It's the pointer to a vector of cImage structure: 5 elements for images and 10 for snippets.

What I have tried:

First I tried to define the struct within an inner array:

[StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential, Pack = 0)]
public struct cImage
{
    public IntPtr Buffer;
    public int Lenght;
};

[StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential, Pack = 0)]
public struct Images
{
    public int DocID;
    [MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.ByValArray)]
    public cImage[] Imgs;
    [MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.Bool)]
    public bool Enabled;
};

Here is how I try to extract the information (it's in a class "ScanMgr")

public bool getImage(IntPtr imgPtr, out Images img)
{
    try
    {
        img = (Images)Marshal.PtrToStructure(imgPtr, typeof(Images));
        return true;
    }
    catch { img = new Images(); }
    return false;
}

And here is where I call the function (scanner is an object of ScanMgr):

switch ((int)msg.WParam)
{
    /* Other cases */
    case (int)WMPAR.ImagesReady:
    Images img;
    if (scanner.getImage(m.LParam, out img))
        /* Here I should get access and use the struct members */
    break;
}

I then tried replacing the array with an IntPtr to the inner struct, to marshal it later:

[StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential, Pack = 0)]
public struct Images
{
    public int DocID;
    public IntPtr Imgs;
    [MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.Bool)]
    public bool Enabled;
};

////////////

switch ((int)msg.WParam)
{
    /* Other cases */
    case (int)WMPAR.ImagesReady:
    Images img;
    if (scanner.getImage(m.LParam, out img))
    {
        cImage cImg = (cImage)Marshal.PtrToStructure(img.Imgs, typeof(cImage));
        /* Access/Use the struct members */
    }
    break;
}

My question is: What is the right way to marshal that inner vector of structs? If is the IntPtr, then how can I extract those members? (since just gonna work with images, I'll stick with a vector of 5)

Thanks in advance
