You should probably use the pointer type: (with-foreign-object (capture** :pointer) (setf (cffi:mem-ref capture** :pointer) capture*) (%release-capture capture**)) Enhancing with-foreign-object such that it accepts the same arguments as foreign-alloc is in my wish list. That would help make this example more concise.
