Thank you Igor for the clarifications, the reason why I prefer using the nativeboost methods is because :
a) I was not sure if smalltalk types map correctly to C types and which Smalltalk types correspond to which C types b) many opengl functions ask for the address of the value and the value itself. And I have no clue how to obtain memory addresses of smalltalk types. c) I was not sure whether Pharo VM or garbage collector would move my data making my pointers invalid. But if you say its ok, I trust you. When exactly is ok to use smalltalk types ? -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Understanding-NBOpenGL-tp4686514p4696955.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Developers mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
