[scilab-Users] api scilab

[Antoine ELIAS]

Hello Benoit,

It seems we have a lack in documention to explain this.

getAllocated* functions return a independent pointer on data whereas 
get* functions return pointer on Scilab memory
But to do that, API needs to allocate some memories. So after call any 
getAllocated* functions you have to call correspondant free* function to 
release memory.

allocMatrixOfDouble is in "Double management writing" page : 
http://help.scilab.org/docs/5.3.2/en_US/Double_management_writing_API.html

Regards,
Antoine
