Subject: [Caml-list] ctypes - to string or to bigarray?
Date: Sun, 28 Feb 2016 19:15:05 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <86oab0hcjq.fsf@gmail.com> (raw)

I'm writing bindings for a library that is just doing I/O and wondering
what the suggested best practice is around using string or bigarray.  It
seems like using Bigarray is probably the most versatile interface.
People can decide to do the copying themselves or just use Bigarray
everywhere.

Are there any other things to consider?  Suggestions?

Thanks,
/Malcolm
