I have a C function that allocates a buffer and returns a pointer to it
as follows:
int foo(char **buf, int *n , ...)
The function allocates a buffer and fills with data. Fills in the
pointer to it and its length before returning.
Can someone tell me or point me to a reference showing how to
wrap this with perlxs? I'm new to perlxs but can follow the perlxs
tutorials.
ok.
I'm flexible concerning what type of structure holds the data at the perl
end, as long as I can process it byte by byte.
int &len obviously works for the length but
char * &buf doesn't work as for the buffer as it contains zeros.
Thanks,
Rob Clark.
