First, thanks for making this system, and apologies if this isn;t the list for these questions but there appears to be no cffi-users list.
In any case, is there any way to catch the underlying c++ exceptions within a cffi-wrapper? I have developed a C++ library that defines its own exceptions and I would like to trap them and generate an appropriate Lisp Condition. At present deliberately triggering an error (say by passingincorrect parameters to a constructor) gives me back a null pointer.
Btw, do you call out to your library, or you plan to just generate exceptions? If you do call out, how do you manage it? I mean, C++ name mangling is hard to keep with, etc...
Thanks, Collin Lynch.
