Further information
1. This function converts an entity of an external type into its textual representation. If the type does not support this convertion, the function produces a string using the address of the entity.
2. The returned length might be larger than
size. In this case this return value is the minimum buffer size required to generate the text representation and the destination string
str is not populated.
