Hi, Most type wrapping/unwrapping methods that are used within Guile are not exposed to the user, which is a pity. For example, `scm_addr_vector' (in socket.c) which converts a `sockaddr' structure to its Scheme representation (a vector) is defined as `static'. This leaves the C programmer with the following alternative:
* use, e.g., `scm_connect ()' instead of `connect ()' in its C code; * define a new SMOB (or other representation) for `sockaddr' that may be incompatible with Guile's representation of this C type; * copy/paste Guile's conversion methods, hoping that they're going to remain valid. Obviously, the best solution would be to expose the relevant functions to the user. :-) What do you think? Thanks, Ludovic. _______________________________________________ Guile-user mailing list Guile-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/guile-user
