Hi, I'm passing a pointer buffer as void * to a C library that returns Uint8 or Uint16 (and signed types).
If I explicitly declare the buffer as PByte, PWord, etc. I get exactly what I need, but, I would like to work with an abstract type (for example Pointer) and cast it depending on a flag returned by the library. If I pass a Pointer (instead of a PWord or PByte) and cast it to PWord, for example. I get the same result if I have passed a PByte. How can I handle a situation like this without explicitly define each type?. Regards, -- Leonardo M.
