Hello list,
I'm porting an application writen in "C" to RealBasic, that
aplication make use of pointers and seems to be almost imposible to
not use them, is there a way to use pointers in RealBasic?
Here is how the definition is done.
static BYTE* m_pNext = 0;
And the real problem is this use of the pointer:
m_pNext += sizeof(FS6IPC_WRITESTATEDATA_HDR) + dwSize;
What is the equivalent in RealBasic for this
Maybe you are trying to make too direct port ?
The question here is why would you need pointers in REALbasic ? What
are you trying to accomplish that you cannot accomplish with the
REALbasic reference counting system ?
You might have a valid reason (hard to know from your mail), but it
might also be a porting strategy issue, porting from a low lever
language to high level language should never be done as line by line
port.
