Foreign Function Interface (FFI)

Postby roy5050 » 01 Sep 2002 18:33

This is another feature that could be added to<br>vcc.<br><br>It would allow the user to call functions written<br>in any other language.<br><br>FFI(vbClick,vbTrue);<br><br>or<br><br>FFI(cClick,cTrue);<br><br>this I think could also be done<br>by calling a native<br>function that uses the FFI features of C/C++<br>to call functions written in another language.<br><br>But, I think that an FFI interface in vcc would be<br>cleaner, more efficent, or more robust.<br><br>Thank You.<br>

I agree.<br><br>Also calling any function cann't be allowed for security reasons.<br><br>And yes - in client/server some things are harder to do. And to improve this, one of my future goals is switch to the Unreal Engine-like architecture.
