Hello Benoît, ...when I have an external function, which passes me a pointer to a structure, if I want to dereference the pointer in order to obtain the values of various fields, which are incorporated into the structure, currently it is necessary to use the "Memory-Stream" together with "Read", and also to "Seek" if I want to read the value of a specific field of the structure. I wonder if it can be shorter (in code writing), having a "dereferencing function" like Byte@, Int@, etc, also for the structure OR the "class specific" as: Struct@ or myClass@. So you can dereference "immediately" the pointer to the structure passed by the external function. So you can gather the various fields into a variable-Struct or variable of my-specific-Class:
variable_Struct_type = Struct@(pointer) OR variable_mySpecificClass_type = mySpecificClass@(pointer) What do you think about ?
