ptr

README

Pointers to builtin types.

Package ptr is a very simple package that provides functions to return pointers to values of builtin types.

The deref subdirectory contains a package for safely dereferencing pointers.

These simple packages can be useful when dealing with APIs and datatypes that use pointers to represent optional parameters.

Almost all of the code in the ptr and ptr/deref packages has been automatically generated.

Documentation

Overview

Package ptr provides functions that return pointers to values.

These functions can prove useful for APIs and structures where pointers are used to indicate a nullable value.

Almost all of the code in this package is automatically generated.
