Yes. Something I forgot to mention about Java nio.Buffers is that they are byte array buffers. There is mechanism by which int and float (and short, char, lond and double) are overlayed as views onto byte buffers. The reason I mention this is that as yet Elm does not have any support for binary buffers, and it might also be worth thinking about that issue at the same time. Could JsArray.elm by made to work with JavaScript typed arrays? https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Typed_arrays -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Elm Discuss" group.
