Hi,
yeah the title is a bit confusing. So what's the story ?
atm I am creating a tiny crypto dll for Windev. Problem is based on parameter passing.
//C code
void rc2_decrypt( const unsigned short xkey[64],
unsigned char *plain,
const unsigned char *cipher )
{
unsigned x76, x54, x32, x10, i;
x76 = (cipher[7] << 8) + cipher[6];
.........
Not yet a DLL function but I am not a C/C++ fan, so here the D port.
//D programming language
export extern(Windows) /*create DLL function */
void rc2_decrypt( const(ushort)[64] xkey, ubyte* plain, const(ubyte)* cipher )
ubyte is unsigned byte, allready more readable, right ?
But instead of using a pointer to unsigned byte, I would prefer to use arrays:...
//D programming language
export extern(Windows) /*create DLL function using arrays*/
void rc2_decrypt( const(ushort)[64] xkey, ubyte[] plain, const(ubyte)[] cipher )
In order to use the array based DLL function, I just can hope that WINDEVs buffer is usable:
// WINDEV
plain is buffer = "DecryptMePlease" // the rc2-decrypt plain parameter
Any ideas ?

Edit [ D is C ABI compatible, ABI not API ]
Sorry I can't drive any tests: Most of my hardware is damaged due high voltage accident.
Hope, I'll get new toys within the next 2 days.
