Not quite - for interfacing with C you need an null character at the end of
the string - and for UTF-16 that is easier to handle using Wide_Character
to append to a Wide_String.

Not that is would be impossible with String. Anyway - I found that
Wide_String and Wide_Character work quite well for a Win32 application.
