MacOS would be nice. I could test it if you need a tester. I have multiple systems, wlans & routers & powerline devices in the network.

@Araq Oh sorry, you are right, it was the other way around, because f0 and f1 are identical, you can dereference a function pointer arbitrarily often. Every time you dereference the pointer, the function is again equivalent to the pointer to it.

I fail to see what the "all" should be? If I add 4 random memory addresses I just get a meaningless value. But thats probably the error you talk about. You need to add the size of the type the `pointer` points at. Thats the reason you can't create an "+" like function without more information. A

I finally got around to releasing a small network utility called netwatch: [https://github.com/johnscillieri/netwatch](https://github.com/johnscillieri/netwatch) netwatch scans your network for hosts, lets you label them, and shows you the last time they were seen: Scanning 192.168

You must not using signed integers in pointer arithmetic, just because memory address can't be negative and can be higher, then **0x8000_** for 32 bit platforms and **0x8000___** for 64 bit platforms. So var newp = cast[pointer](cast[uint](oldp) + 1u)

var abc*: xxx #wrong, should be proc abc(yyy: int): cint No, that is a correct translation. proc zzz*(f: ptr xxx) #wrong I don't know about this. I suppose the typedef is "ignored" as an abstraction and it really means "single pointer to function", not a "pointer to

this what i came up with for the + operator proc `+`(a:pointer,p:pointer): pointer = result = cast[pointer](cast[int](a) + 1 * sizeof(p)) I believe a person has to times the sizeof p by 1. But i could make it use generics too i guess but i dunno. And thank you filwit for

The c2nim translation posted by jlp765 is correct. But i found something wrong when c2nim try to translate the _usage_ of the typedefed type. Sorry not to mention them earlier. typedef int xxx(int yyy); xxx abc; void zzz(xxx* f); void www(xxx f); zzz and

The `pointer` type doesn't have a `+` proc out-of-the-box (to prevent common pointer arithmetic mistakes, iirc). So you need to cast each pointer to an int, do the arithmetic on those, then cast the result back into a pointer. Off the top of my head.. all = cast[pointer]( ca

I am still relatively new to doing this even in c, because i was used to using vector in c++. But since i am learning nim i don't know the way to correctly put a pointer into a pre allocated pointer using cast in nim. So here is what i'm working on. import ../obj_parser, streams
