I am trying to use a RPC library called clnt_call in my XS.
clnt_call() takes a timeout argument called tout of the type 'struct
timeval'
defined as
struct timeval {
time_t tv_sec; /* seconds */
suseconds_t tv_usec; /* microseconds */
};
xsubpp(1) is having problem wanting me to define it in my 'typemap'
file.
How do I do that? If I just say
struct timeval T_PTROBJ
Then I get an error on line 117 of my RPC.c
if (sv_derived_from(ST(4), "struct timeval")) {
IV tmp = SvIV((SV*)SvRV(ST(4)));
tout = INT2PTR(struct timeval,tmp);
}
Where line 117 is 'tout = INT2PTR'
the error message reads
RPC.c:117: conversion to non-scalar type requested
Thanks
