It *says* that, but my guess is it's really a pointer, and therein lies your
problem. The C++ statement
lpMidiBuffer + eventCount
is equivalent to
&(lpMidiBuffer[eventCount])
i.e. "the address of the eventCount'th element of lpMidiBuffer".
The thing is it looks a lot nicer... Basically, pointer arithmetic works as
follows.
Adding x to a pointer actually adds (x * b) to the pointer's address, where
b is the size in bytes of the object that the pointer points to.
OK, that made no sense at all. But as far as I can tell, there's no
equivalent operation in Pascal. You'll prolly have to cast lpMidiBuffer to a
dword and add (eventCount * b) to it or something, where b is the size of
the thing being counted (an event?)
I don't know. I'm still a C programmer at heart... Pointers are sooo
yummy...
If this still makes no sense, it would help if I had more code :) Mail me
back off-list and I'll take a look.
