And pardon me, I'm not thinking very clearly. That sounds wrong.
My thought was that a SimpleType could be allocated statically, and
passing it would do something like (in C, continuing the example from
earlier in the thread):
ip_address_t foo;
memset(&foo, 0, sizeof(ip_address_t));
I can see writing things like this being frowned upon, but my thought
was that a SimpleType was just that. It seems instead that all
allocations are supposed to come from the heap via (one way or another)
malloc/free? Or am I still misunderstanding something?
