<C-pointer>

Primary open abstract class

Description

The abstract superclass of all classes that designate a C pointer type. It is a subclass of <C-value>. Instances of concrete subclasses of <C-pointer> encapsulate a raw C address. The make methods on subclasses of <C-pointer> accept the keyword argument address:, which must be a Dylan <integer> or <machine-word> representation of the C address.
