That sounds good but I don't know if I use that. My setup looks
something like this:

    gst_define_cfunc( "DECanvas.getCanvasCount", ( void*
)ccGetCanvasCount );

and in this example ccGetCanvasCount is:

int stClassCanvas::ccGetCanvasCount( OOP self ){
   return some integer;
}

So I don't think I'm using that function. Or does it automatically do
this if the return value is OOP?
