31 ;;;# Calling Foreign Functions
32 ;;;
33 ;;; FOREIGN-FUNCALL is the main primitive for calling foreign
34 ;;; functions. It converts each argument based on the installed
35 ;;; translators for its type, then passes the resulting list to
36 ;;; CFFI-SYS:%FOREIGN-FUNCALL.
37 ;;;
38 ;;; For implementation-specific reasons, DEFCFUN doesn't use
39 ;;; FOREIGN-FUNCALL directly and might use something else (passed to
40 ;;; TRANSLATE-OBJECTS as the CALL-FORM argument) instead of
41 ;;; CFFI-SYS:%FOREIGN-FUNCALL to call the foreign-function.
