Talk:Call a foreign-language function

I've modified the task slightly (making it a bit less strict) as part of merging in the content that was in C FFI, as that was the same task by a different, weaker name and with slightly variant non-important conditions. --Donal Fellows 20:36, 17 August 2009 (UTC)

strdup is part of POSIX, not standard C.

Not all standard-compliant C89 implementations will have strdup available. As long as we're using C as a universal intermediate, we should stick to something that's going to be present in all C89-compliant versions. Suggested fixes for the task? --Michael Mol 20:08, 5 October 2010 (UTC)
