Subject: Re: [Pharo-users] FFI to UFFI
One final consideration:
Truth is, once you load it in P7, the package should work (at least in
32 bits, I do not think is made thinking on 64bits platforms). Both
notations ends calling same primitives.
This means, if your intentions are just to play a bit and see how
things work: you should not need to do the translation
:)

Ps: I just tried in P8 the approach to load I proposed. It throws an
error but loads.

I started to play with ODBC package upgrade from Pharo 4.0 to 7.0
(http://smalltalkhub.com/mc/PharoExtras/ODBC), more or less as an
exercise. As a smalltalk novice I stubmled to the challenge of, as it
seems, an old FFI syntax. When I try to load the package into Pharo
7.02 on Windows, I get this error:

I have two questions:
- Is there any elegant way to successfuly load the package into Pharo
7 to get started with the code adaptation?
- And, of course, I'd be grateful if someone could point me into the
right direction of how to tackle with the above cdecl syntax with the
new UFFI.
