here is the way CvMemStorage is defined in OpenCV
typedef struct CvMemStorage
{
int signature;
CvMemBlock* bottom; /* First allocated block.
*/
CvMemBlock* top; /* Current memory block - top of the stack.
*/
struct CvMemStorage* parent; /* We get new blocks from parent as needed.
*/
int block_size; /* Block size.
*/
int free_space; /* Remaining free space in current block.
*/
}
CvMemStorage;
bu i get
unknown CFFI type: (:STRUCT CV-MEM-STORAGE).
[Condition of type SIMPLE-ERROR]
when i wrap like this....i know lisp is known for recursion how do i bypass this
(defcstruct cv-mem-storage
(signature :int)
(bottom (:pointer (:struct cv-mem-block)))
(top (:pointer (:struct cv-mem-block)))
(parent (:pointer (:struct cv-mem-storage)))
(block-size :int)
(free-space :int))
how to wrap a nested struct in cffi?
Re: how to wrap a nested struct in cffi?
CFFI doesn't support cyclic definitions. Just leave the parent pointer unspecified, it should work.
cl-2dsyntax is my attempt to create a Python-like reader. My mirror of CLHS (and the dark themed version). Temporary mirrors of aferomentioned: CLHS and a dark version.
