[cffi-devel] Re: varargs (again)

Actually, I believe it's not enough to let defcfun know about varargs. FOREIGN-FUNCALL needs it as well, so it can tell the underlying Lisp where varargs happen.

Indeed. As soon as some Lisp supports this we'll extend foreign-funcall that way. :-)

An alternative implementation strategy for cffi might be to build up a va_list structure and call the *V() functions (e.g. TIFFVGetField)?? Uhoh...

That'd be nice too. If only the varargs stuff wasn't all macros... -- Luís Oliveira luismbo (@) gmail (.) com Equipa Portuguesa do Translation Project http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/translation/registry.cgi?team=pt
