Hi,
I am writing a nim wrapper for a c library and would like to construct a
sequence of nim items from a generic proc.
I can construct std library types with a call to a constructor like construct
but this does not work for tuples or objects if i got this right
proc get_item_from_pointer*[T](p: pointer, l_type : MyTypeEnum ; item : var
T) =
case l_type
of MyTypeEnum.f32 :
var typed_target = cast[ptr float32](p)
item=T(typed_target[])
[...]
The item construction works for int, float.. but not for custom enum types.
In this example the l_type is the type of the c source pointer, item has the
type I want to construct and f32 encodes float32
But I do need a "constructor" for a self defined tuple type which is not
available by the type name - only by ()
Is there a way to construct a tuple or object based on the type information in
a generic function like T() above? Maybe a way to identify tuple/object types?
Kind Regards, b
