Again: Basic Questions about NativeBoost

I post this question again, because I was no subscriber of the eMail list:

 I'm still having problems understanding the documentation. There are examples for basic stuff, but with pointers I have my problems understanding it:

How do I call a function in an external library with a single parameter: a pointer to an unsigned integer (32 bit). How is this defined:

apiVersion:major minor: minor patch: patch
^ NBFFICallout cdecl: #(void 'zmq_version' (NBSignedLong major, ...)) module: 'libzmq.dll'

or more like:

apiVersion:major minor: minor patch: patch
^ NBFFICallout cdecl: #(void 'zmq_version' (NBSignedLong* major, ...)) module: 'libzmq.dll'

and another question: how do I call this function ?

Marten

Does NB support writing callbacks in smalltalk that can be called by external library?

the support is there.. but it is not functional .. yet.
So, the answer is: NO.

But no, you can write callbacks using smalltalk, if that smalltalk is
assember code, which you will generate
to implement callback in native form.
So, then answer is: YES .. or still NO, depending if you willing to do that :)

Yeah.. thanks for reminder. i need to deal with that part
