-- Arrays --
-------------
-- The following functions ease bindings: when a C function returns an
-- array or a pointer to an array, it returns a C array, ie which doesn't
-- contain bounds. The size of the array is generally reported separately.
-- The following definitions are suitable for use internally in the
-- binding, but should not, when possible, be made visble to the user,
-- since they don't behave like usual Ada arrays ('Last is irrelevant for
-- instance).
--
-- For instance, if a C function has the following profile:
-- gint* get_sizes (GtkIconTheme* theme); -- 0 terminated array
-- when the binding is:
-- function Internal (Theme) return Unbounded_Gint_Array_Access;
-- and you need to compute for yourself the number of elements, and
-- return a Glib.Gint_Array to the user.
--
-- If the C function has the following profile:
-- gboolean get_attach_points (theme, GdkPoint** p, gint* n);
-- then the binding is:
-- function Internal (Theme : System.Address;
-- Points : out Unbounded_Points_Array_Access;
-- N : access Gint) return Gboolean;
-- and you do the following:
-- R : aliased Unbounded_Points_Array_Access;
-- N : aliased Gint;
-- Tmp : constant Gboolean :=
-- Internal (.., R'Unchecked_Access, N'Unchecked_Access);
-- Result : Gdk_Points_Array (1 .. Natural (N)) :=
-- To_Gint_Array (R, Natural (N));
-- Free (R);
-- return Result;
