Hi everyone,

I was checking the NativeBoost code and I am confused with some heap allocation procedures, specifically:

NBFFICallout>>resolveType: "It receives a type name aTypeName"�
� � � � ...
� � � � "name becomes an alias for aTypeName"

binding := resolver nbBindingOf: name asSymbol.
binding ifNotNil: [�
^ (binding value asNBExternalType: self) pointerArity: ptrArity ] .

Is there anybody who can help me solving an issue I have found

Yes, and we really need to fix all the small hurdles people encounter� and improve the documentation for people not already knowing things..
