longDescription = '' | ||
The libffi library provides a portable, high level programming | ||
interface to various calling conventions. This allows a | ||
programmer to call any function specified by a call interface | ||
description at run-time. | ||
FFI stands for Foreign Function Interface. A foreign function | ||
interface is the popular name for the interface that allows code | ||
written in one language to call code written in another | ||
language. The libffi library really only provides the lowest, | ||
machine dependent layer of a fully featured foreign function | ||
interface. A layer must exist above libffi that handles type | ||
conversions for values passed between the two languages. | ||
