I don't have any simple runnable example right now, so I hope this helps: Dim pPointer As Pointer Dim hStream As Stream Dim iYourData As Integer Dim ii As Integer Dim iNumberOfDataPoints As Integer = x Dim itmp As Integer
pPointer = Alloc(SizeOf(gb.Integer), iNumberOfDataPoints) ExternalFunction(pPointer) ''Function takes pointer for output as parameter. hStream = Memory pPolku For Read For ii = 1 To iNumberOfDataPoints itmp = Read #hStream As Integer iYourData.Add(itmp) Next Close #hStream Jussi On Sun, Nov 20, 2011 at 06:42, Randall Morgan <rmorga...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi All, > > Can someone give me a sample of using memory streams to read and write data > to/from memory. > > I am needing to read data from a C structure allocated by the external > library (tidy) with the pointer returned to Gambas. > > I read the page on external libraries many times before learning the Gambas > 3 does not allow the use of READ on pointers any longer. > This should be updated on the how to use external libraries page in the > section "More on Pointers" > > Still, with the given documentation for Gambas3 I am unable to get my > program to compile.
