[cffi-devel] Calling function expecting char**
by JoeSB COE9 27 Dec '05

27 Dec '05

Hi, How do I call a function that expect char**? I test it with /** C Code */ #include <stdio.h> void expect_charpp(char** buffs){ printf("I got %s and %s", buffs[0], buffs[1]); } ;; Lisp side (cffi:with-foreign-object (argv :pointer 2) (setf (cffi:mem-ref argv :pointer 0) (cffi:foreign-string-alloc "Hello")) (setf (cffi:mem-ref argv :pointer 1) (cffi:foreign-string-alloc "Hello")) (cffi:foreign-funcall "expect_charpp" :pointer argv)) And I got a memory fault error in SBCL. If i comment out the code in C to make it not accessing the data, it won't err. So it looks like the error is in how I allocate the memory. Please advice. Pisin Bootvong,

[cffi-devel] Providing access to errno in CFFI-SYS
by James Bielman 24 Dec '05

24 Dec '05

Hi all, While working through my fancy gettimeofday CFFI example, I've added a type translator used as the return type for standard C functions that return a negative integer on error and set 'errno'. Since errno is often a macro expanding to a function, I can't very well define it as a foreign global. Most CL implementations seem to have a function used internally to safely get errno for the current thread. I propose adding such an interface to CFFI-SYS to safely get 'errno'. Here's what I added to CFFI-SYS for SBCL: (defun errno-value () (sb-alien:get-errno)) This should be equally simple for CMUCL, OpenMCL, and LispWorks. I haven't found anything in Allegro CL or CLISP (Jörg?) for this yet. I don't intend to do anything with the return value except call 'strerror' on it, since the values themselves are also defined as macros and not introspectable from Lisp either...argh! (I know errno isn't _completely_ portable---at least one OS I use regularly, Windows CE, doesn't have it at all, even though some functions are documented as setting it! I'm willing to put that off until we run into the problem though...) James

[cffi-devel] Branch: New Type Translator Interface
by James Bielman 23 Dec '05

23 Dec '05

Hi all, I've done yet-another rewrite of the type translator interface. It does everything through generic functions at run-time, which allows us to specialize on both the Lisp object being converted, and the foreign type we are converting to. DEFINE-TYPE-TRANSLATOR is gone---instead you simply specialize the generic functions as needed. For example (taken from examples/gettimeofday.lisp): ;; A NULL-POINTER is a :POINTER that must always be NULL. (defctype null-pointer :pointer) ;; Translator that ensures VALUE is a null pointer. NIL is ;; also converted to a null pointer for convenience. (defmethod translate-to-foreign (value type (name (eql 'null-pointer))) (declare (ignore type name)) (cond ((null value) (null-pointer)) ((null-pointer-p value) value) (t (error "~A is not a null pointer." value)))) This method on TRANSLATE-TO-FOREIGN replaces the :TO-C case of DEFINE-TYPE-TRANSLATOR. Specializing the other GFs is similar---I've also added a FREE-TRANSLATED-OBJECT generic function. There isn't yet a mechanism for optimizing the case where we are converting a Lisp object to a C object with dynamic extent---I will add this next, with some sort of compiler-macro-like interface. The branch can be downloaded via: darcs get http://slacknet.com/~jamesjb/cffi-new-translators Please give it a spin and let me know what you think! Documentation updates coming soon... James
