Subject: Calling C from Common Lisp and vice versa
Date:
Message-ID: <6454@bloom-beacon.MIT.EDU>
I am not sure if this has been asked before or not as I just joined this
newsgroup, and if it has I apologise.
I have an application in Common Lisp which consists of an array as a
data structure. I wish to pass this array to a C function which goes
through the array and display a graph in an X window. My problem is that
how would I call a C function from Common Lisp and how would I pass the
array (or any data structure for that matter) from Lisp to C.
The other side of the story is that, I have buttons in X (implemented in
C) which when clicked should change the state of the Common Lisp
program. So in this case, how can I execute a Common Lisp function from
C.
Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
