Callback Test Suite 2 
---------------------

REQUIREMENTS
- dyncall
- ANSI C compiler
- lua (tested with 5.1)

CONFIGURE SUITE

  edit config.lua and run "make config".

DESCRIPTION

Generates a set of callback invokers in C using lua as a preprocessor.
The invokers put up an argument vector using a global Value-Matrix which
holds a specific type-specific value pattern as a function of position.

The Value-Matrix

The value-matrix is a data structure consisting of n x m elements of
type DCValueSet which can store distinct numbers for each type.

It is used in the body of the auto-generated callback invokers (C code).

The Callback Invocation Body

Example:
The body for a signature of type  "dpdf)p" at case id 19 is:

void f19(void* addr) 
{ 
  Result.p = ((CONFIG_API p(*)(d,p,d,f))addr)(ValueMatrix[0].d,ValueMatrix[1].p,ValueMatrix[2].d,ValueMatrix[3].f);
}              ^^^^^^^^^^- calling convention
                          ^^^^^^^^^^^^^- signature
         ^- return type signature
                                                  ^- arg signature char 0 (later expected) value


Result (type DCValue)  and ValueMatrix (type DCValueSet[MAXARGS]) are globals. 
The ValueMatrix is initialized once from main.c for all cominations of types
and argument position.
See env.* files for details.


Reference argument and result value

The value is generated by a pure function GetReferenceValue and
GetReferenceResult (file env.c). They have formals position and type 
and are pure without any side-effects (means the function value does only
relay on the input arguments - if called with same arguments it will reveal
the same value.

It defined in env.c.

Tssting for exotic calling conventions on Windows:

Specify 'api' and 'ccprefix' accordingly:


"__stdcall"	"_s"
"__fastcall"	"_f" for gcc compiler
		"_F" for microsoft compiler
