Map a C type string to an Rtinycc FFI type

Usage

tcc_map_c_type_to_ffi(c_type)

Arguments

c_type: C type string (e.g., "int", "double", "char *").

Value

A single FFI type string.

Details

This mapper is intentionally conservative for pointer types. char* is treated as a raw pointer (ptr) because C does not guarantee NUL-terminated strings. If you know the API expects a C string, map it explicitly to cstring in your custom mapper. Unknown scalar types and long double are rejected rather than assigned a potentially incompatible calling convention; provide a custom mapper when their ABI is known.

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
tcc_map_c_type_to_ffi("int")
tcc_map_c_type_to_ffi("const char *")
} # }
