I was just wondering why cffi doesn't do automatic conversions. Since casting is used so much in c I think it would do automatic conversions...Do experts in CFFI normally use this approach, do they cast on the Lisp side or use another approach..I'd like to start learning the best way to do things
There is no other approach to use. You must always pass the right type to CFFI, and do type coercions beforehand either explicitly or implicitly through custom types.
