Re: Functions pointers

mmm....yes.... I should... -_-' Now it works!!! I paste the all code if
someone has the same problem ;)

------ funcs.h ------

int returnFoo(int);

int returnBar(int*);

char* returnFooBar(char*);

int callFoo(int(*)(int), int);

int callBar(int(*)(int*), int*);

char* callFooBar(char*(*)(char*), char*);


------ funcs.c ------

#include <c_funcs.h>

int returnFoo(int foo){
  return foo;
}

int returnBar(int* bar){
  if (bar)
    return *bar;
}

char* returnFooBar(char* fooBar){
  if (fooBar)
    return fooBar;
}

int callFoo(int(*func)(int), int foo){
  return (*func)(foo);
}

int callBar(int(*func)(int*), int* bar){
  return (*func)(bar);
}

char* callFooBar(char*(*func)(char*), char* FooBar){
  return (*func)(FooBar);
}


------ funcs.pyx ------

cdef extern from "c_funcs.h":
  int returnFoo(int)
  int returnBar(int*)
  char* returnFooBar(char*)
  int callFoo(int(*)(int), int)
  int callBar(int(*)(int*), int*)
  char* callFooBar(char*(*)(char*), char*)

cdef class funcs:
  cdef object funcsDict
  def __init__(self):
      cdef unsigned long fooPointer
      fooPointer = <unsigned long>&returnFoo
      self.funcsDict = {}
      self.funcsDict['returnFoo'] = fooPointer
      print self.funcsDict['returnFoo']

  def pyCallFoo(self, foo):
      cdef unsigned long tmp
      tmp = self.funcsDict['returnFoo']
      print tmp
      return callFoo(<int(*)(int)>tmp, foo)
