PInvoke WPF HWND and const void*

Question

I need to use the following C++ function in my WPF application:

/****************************************
* BOOL WINAPI SetWindowFeedbackSetting(
*  _In_      HWND hwnd,
*  _In_      FEEDBACK_TYPE feedback,
*  _In_      DWORD dwFlags,
*  _In_      UINT32 size,
*  _In_opt_  const VOID *configuration
*);
*****************************************/

But I'm not sure how to Marshal it and how to PInvoke it. This is what I have so far:

public enum FEEDBACK_TYPE : uint { 
    FEEDBACK_TOUCH_CONTACTVISUALIZATION  = 1,
    FEEDBACK_PEN_BARRELVISUALIZATION     = 2,
    FEEDBACK_PEN_TAP                     = 3,
    FEEDBACK_PEN_DOUBLETAP               = 4,
    FEEDBACK_PEN_PRESSANDHOLD            = 5,
    FEEDBACK_PEN_RIGHTTAP                = 6,
    FEEDBACK_TOUCH_TAP                   = 7,
    FEEDBACK_TOUCH_DOUBLETAP             = 8,
    FEEDBACK_TOUCH_PRESSANDHOLD          = 9,
    FEEDBACK_TOUCH_RIGHTTAP              = 10,
    FEEDBACK_GESTURE_PRESSANDTAP         = 11,
    FEEDBACK_MAX                         = 0xFFFFFFFF
}

[DllImport("user32.dll", CallingConvention = CallingConvention.StdCall)] // (1)
public static extern bool SetWindowFeedbackSetting(
    [In] IntPtr hwnd,
    [In] FEEDBACK_TYPE feedback,
    [In] uint dwFlags,
    [In] uint size,           // (2)
    [In, Optional] IntPtr configuration // (3)
 );

So first, is (1),(2),(3) correct?

Second, if I want to PInvoke this function according to this C++ function call:

BOOL fEnabled = FALSE;
BOOL res = SetWindowFeedbackSetting(
              hwnd,
              FEEDBACK_TOUCH_CONTACTVISUALIZATION,
              0,
              sizeof(fEnabled),
              &fEnabled
           );

What it the way to send the HWND and the boolean?

I'm asking this question to better understand the pinvoke\Marshal mechanism and also since the way I tried is not working.

Thanks

Your translation is accurate. But personally, for convenience, I'd make one overload for each type you need to use. For a boolean:

[DllImport("user32.dll"])
public static extern bool SetWindowFeedbackSetting(
    IntPtr hwnd,
    FEEDBACK_TYPE feedback,
    uint dwFlags,
    uint size,          
    [In] ref bool configuration 
);

I removed the attributes that were not needed because they restate default values.

Remember that the Win32 BOOL type, the default marshalling option for C# bool is a 4 byte type. So you must pass 4 as the size.
