To make sure things work best, it's good to know what function you're
calling, but I'd try:
INTVAL=INTEGER
STRVAL=STRING
INTREF=@INTEGER
STRREF=@STRING
LONGREF= (at) INTEGER
LONGVAL=INTEGER
You hae to be careful with the REF types-- sometimes these API's want a
32-bit integer pointer to pre-allocated memory .D.OT To do this, you probably
need to DECLARE some memory-management API calls like malloc() and free()--
those are the calls I use, anyways...
If this is a Win32 call, post which one it is, and I'll help you
translate-- also check http://www.news2news.com/, as they may already have
it for you. If it's not a win32 call, post the documentation and I'll try to
help. Thanks.
