[REBOL] Re: Windows Callbacks

From: jeff:rebol at: 2-Jan-2001 10:14

Howdy, Ric: You can't really make a callback function in REBOL, meaning like you have a REBOL function and you have a library routine take a pointer to that REBOL function as a callback. At this time you really have to have C functions act as callbacks. You can manage this with REBOL/command like this: Create another dynamic library containing your callback functions and a function that returns a pointer to those functions. REBOL/command script gets those pointer to functions as integers and passes them along into routines that expect pointers to call back functions. You could have a callback function modify globals that the command script could check... I can provide a more complete example if you like. -jeff
