libffcall - foreign function call libraries
This is a library which can be used to build foreign function call interfaces
in embedded interpreters.
Installed libraries and header files:
It installs a library libffcall.{a,so}; to link with it, use the compiler
option '-lffcall'.
It consists of two parts:
* avcall - calling C functions with variable arguments.
Its include file is <avcall.h>.
* callback - closures with variable arguments as first-class C functions.
Its include file is <callback.h>.
Additionally, you can determine the libffcall version by including
<ffcall-version.h>.
For backward compatibility with versions 1.x, libraries libavcall.{a,so}
and libcallback.{a,so} are installed as well. But they are deprecated;
use libffcall.{a,so} instead.
Installation instructions:
mkdir builddir
cd builddir
../configure --cache-file=config.cache
make
make check
make install
