What's SWIG?
A heavy duty version of easyffi: http://www.swig.org
I'm actually doing both CDK and libxmmsclient, and I don't need a compelet wrapper for either of them; I just want things to work, and I don't mind adding bits of CDK in as I need them.
So I'd recommend easyffi, or using normal FFI macros.
As a related question, something I ran across in libxmmsclient that seems particularily tricky: a function with an int return value, but an int32_t *foo argument where the *actual* data is returned. In whichever method(s) you reccomend, how would I set up the 32-bit integer pointer, and then read data out of it after the call?
; manually: (define foo (foreign-lambda int "foo" (c-pointer int))) (let-location ((n int 0)) (my-function n) n) or: ; easyffi: #>? int foo(___in int *x); <# (foo 123) cheers, felix _______________________________________________ Chicken-users mailing list Chicken-users@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/chicken-users
