Pointer reading (Scilab gateway)

How to read pointer in a gateway.

Calling Sequence

Input argument profile:

SciErr getPointer(void* _pvCtx, int* _piAddress, void** _pvPtr)

Named variable profile:

SciErr readNamedPointer(void* _pvCtx, const char* _pstName, void** _pvPtr)

Arguments

_pvCtx

Scilab environment pointer, pass in "pvApiCtx" provided by api_scilab.h

_piAddress

Address of the Scilab variable.

_pvPtr

Return address of pointer.

SciErr

Error structure where is stored errors messages history and first error number.

Description

This help describes how pointer can be handled through the Scilab API.

		return 0;
	}

	if(sciErr.iErr)
	{
		printError(&sciErr, 0);
		return 0;
	}

	LhsVar(1) = Rhs + 1;
	return 0;
}
