Description-en: foreign function call libraries - development files
ffcall is a collection of libraries which can be used to build
foreign function call interfaces in embedded interpreters.
.
The main libffcall library consists of two parts:
.
avcall - calling C functions with variable arguments
.
callback - closures with variable arguments as first-class C functions
.
The avcall and callback modules are also provided as separate
libraries, but those are deprecated and are installed only for backward
compatibility.
.
Two other libraries are provided:
.
vacall - C functions accepting variable argument prototypes
(non-reentrant variant of part of 'callback')
.
trampoline - closures as first-class C functions
(non-reentrant variant of part of 'callback')
.
This package also includes documentation, in HTML format and as manual pages.
