kandi X-RAY | ref-struct-di Summary
[Dependency Status] This module offers a "struct" implementation on top of Node.js Buffers using the ref "type" interface. Note: The only difference to ref-struct is that this module takes its dependency on ref via dependency injection, so that it is easier to use e.g. ref-napi instead.

QUESTION
Need to use some ffi napi in electron, and i trying to get it work, starting from small. Trying to understand and get ffi works, but cant get result. I know that i pass pointer to struct, into which the result will be written. But call return True and no result in the specified pointer. There is no new data. Please help with this.

Answered 2021-Oct-24 at 06:52First, I don't know the pointer well. However, I was interested in the same problem, so I tried and found a solution. I will revise it when I know the exact principle.
The GetWindowRect and SHAppBarMessage functions you used receive struct pointer type parameters from C++. These functions have the function of notifying the successful or not by the return value and recording the data on the received struct. So, when testing the function in C++, an error occurs when building a structure type parameter without adding the Ampsand(ex. &rect or &data) symbol.
An example of ref-struct-di shows an example of using a struct pointer to a parameter. I thought this was delivering a struct pointer to a function and it worked when the code was modified as follows. The part that uses struct as a parameter and the part that defines the function with ffi must be modified. Please refer to the comments in code!
QUESTION
I am trying to return a struct from a Rust function to Node.js, the struct is nested, and contains an array so it is sufficiently complicated that I want to do the allocation in Rust and have Node.JS receive a complete object, here's the Rust code in short:
A State
is returned that contains a number of Config
s, a message (e.g error message, or some warning) and a number of configs.

Containing an array was the tricky/trap part. Arrays in C (ergo FFI) tend to be zero terminated, but there's no guarantee that things work a particular way for arrays of structs.
Here's what we had to do:
- In Rust, expose a struct with a length member, and a pointer to a single item.
- In Rust, allocate a vector of our things and use
into_boxed_slice()
to forget it, this gives a pointer to the first one. - Fill the length property on our struct
Everything like in the example we posted first.
In node.js however it's a bit different, the working code was nearly identical to what we had, here's the types:
