call

public abstract Object call(Object signature,
                            Object functionPointer,
                            Object... args)

                            com.oracle.truffle.api.interop.UnsupportedMessageException

Call a native function with this signature.

Throws:

com.oracle.truffle.api.interop.ArityException

com.oracle.truffle.api.interop.UnsupportedTypeException

com.oracle.truffle.api.interop.UnsupportedMessageException

createClosure

public abstract Object createClosure(Object signature,
                                     Object executable)

Create a function pointer closure that calls back into an executable object. This message must return something that's compatible with NativeSimpleType.POINTER. The returned pointer should be a function pointer. Calling that function pointer sends the InteropLibrary.execute(java.lang.Object, java.lang.Object...) message to the executable object. The returned object should not be executable.
