So CLHS doesn't add the return value to its declaration....so I guess its okay not to...Does anybody ever do it I mean would it be weird if I did it and if not what would be syntax pertaining to the code in my post

for an example of how CLHS uses the "Syntax" and "Arguments and Values" sections to describe functions.

Here is my defcfun as I normally write it,
;; Size Mat::size() const ;; Size* cv_Mat_size(Mat* self) (defcfun ("cv_Mat_size" mat-size) (:pointer size) (self (:pointer mat)))
the
;; Size Mat::size() const
is the C++ function declaration with a Size return value
The ;; Size* cv_Mat_size(Mat* self) is the C wrapper function declaration with a Size* return value
This is my defcfun with a (:pointer size) return value
(defcfun ("cv_Mat_size" mat-size) (:pointer size) (self (:pointer mat)))
In my Documentation for this function I list the Common Lisp function declaration as
(MAT-SIZE (SELF (:POINTER MAT)))
I couldn't figure out if I should add a return value
but in C++ the return value always goes up front i/e ;; Size Mat::size() const
Is it common to put return values on Lisp/CFFI function declarations and if so where
in this declaration (MAT-SIZE (SELF (:POINTER MAT))) should I put mine
btw on the CLHS I didn't see or missed return values on any function declaration
Thanks in advance for any takers=)
Good Day.
