Hi All,
I need some help with SWIG and Ruby, I am trying to use some C functions
in ruby.
I have just started with SWIG and have been reading the manual en posts
around the net, but I have not been able to get this to work properly,
here are some if the questions I have:
- When I run opc_connect why isn’t “conn_id” assigned any reference?
- What’s wrong with the “%apply int *INOUT…”, when I run opcif_open,
“if_id” does not get any reference?
- How do I work with the typedefs “typedef void * XX” in ruby?, when I
run opcdata_create, the variable data should get some data or
referenced?
- Is it necessary to create some custom typemaps to make this work?
Any help or example would be appreciated, thanks in advanced for the
help.
