Hi,
since I managed to get static arrays handed over to a C library I want
to know if this is possible for dynamic arrays too.
I browsed the docs and source but I'm not able to find the actual
implementation of the SetLength() procedure for dynarrays.
rtl/inc/dynarr.inc
Where is it
or maybe better: how does it work?
I think I'll know when the first question is answered, but: how is the
memory for dynamic arrays handled, is there a chance of forcing it to be
one continuous block on the heap for giving a pointer to it to an
external function?
No. Dyn. arrays involve several compiler magic. A dyn. array is
basically a pointer to the real dyn. array containing size information
and the data.
TIA,
Marc
