A gentle reminder.. I am trying to run a simple factorial program using parrot inside my C code.
This is from the embed_new.pod tutorial. This line in the main function seems to be giving me some errors : Parrot_api_load_bytecode_file(interp, "foo.pbc", &pf) ashiva@ubuntu:~/Parrot/rakudo/ Test$ gcc factorial.c `parrot_config embed-cflags` `parrot_config embed-ldflags` factorial.c: In function ‘main’: factorial.c:65:5: warning: passing argument 2 of ‘Parrot_api_load_bytecode_file’ from incompatible pointer type [enabled by default] In file included from factorial.c:2:0: ../parrot/include/parrot/api.h:324:12: note: expected ‘Parrot_String’ but argument is of type ‘char *’ ashiva@ubuntu:~/Parrot/rakudo/Test$ Can anyone please suggest what I can possibly do to avoid these errors and run the pbc ?
