>static Boolean Get_Buffer_Data (unsigned char buffer_num,unsigned int
num_bytes , void * buf )
The pointer passed as buf must point to memory, not just another pointer.
Good:
char MyBuffer[128];
Get_Buffer_Data(x,127,MyBuffer);
Bad:
char *MyBuffer;
Get_Buffer_Data(x,127,MyBuffer);
If buf points to a pointer without enough memory allocated, the best you
could hope for is strange results, the worse would be a program that crashes
constantly.
