[version française à la fin]

Hello,

I'm interfacing a C library in O'Caml and I faced the following
problem. I have a C string declared in the library, and I want to see
it as a Caml string. Is it possible to do it without copying it ? (I
know how to do it using copy_string). I read the reference manual
about C interfacing, but there is nothing about that. Thank you in
advance for any answer.

Bonjour,

J'interface une bibliothèque C en O'Caml et j'ai le problème suivant. J'ai une chaîne de caractères dans la biblio C que je voudrais voir comme une chaîne de caractères O'Caml. Cela est-il possible sans copier la chaîne ? (Je sais le faire en utilisant copy_string). Il n'y a rien à ce propos dans le manuel de référence. Merci d'avance pour toute réponse.
