[Pharo-project] Cheating NB FFI ByteArray size

by Mariano Martinez Peck

Hi Igor. I wonder if I can do the following. I have to pass a ByteArray to a function that expects an already malloced char*. So far it is working fine. Now...what I would like is from the image side to allocate a ByteArray of size + 4. I need to reserve the first 4 bytes of the ByteArray for something. But the library I am calling doesn't let me specify where to start from that char*. So...can I cheat? I mean, can I allocate ByteArray+4 in the image, but when passing it as an argument somehow say "ok, take this ByteArray but think the the beginning is the byte 4" ? or something like that ? Thanks! -- Mariano http://marianopeck.wordpress.com

Re: [Pharo-project] Git API for Pharo

Another nice example is the GitFSCK reimplementation we did. Albeit a bit more complex it will show you how to traverse a repository and extract certain information.

Weird typoâ¦ Otherwise you can try this: 1. create a new Monticello repo with the following: MCHttpRepository location: 'http://ss3.gemstone.com/ss/FileSystem-Git' user: '' password: '' 2. open this repository and load the latest versions of FileSystem-Git and SystemHashing BTW: theres a tutorial in the help (after you've loaded the packages), so go to World menu -> Help -> Help Browser Max On 07.11.2012, at 10:23, Damien Cassou <damien.cassou(a)gmail.com> wrote: > On Wed, Nov 7, 2012 at 10:08 AM, roberto.minelli(a)usi.ch > <roberto.minelli(a)usi.ch> wrote: >> I tried to install what you proposed in a clean Pharo 1.4 image, >> but I got a MessageNotUnderstood: ByteString>>golferReferences. > > you may try changing golferReferences to goferReferences > > -- > Damien Cassou > http://damiencassou.seasidehosting.st > > "Success is the ability to go from one failure to another without > losing enthusiasm." > Winston Churchill >
