Arguments: type &rest args
This function is defined by the ACLWIN compatibility package. It is loaded with
(require :aclwffi)
However, it is for compatibility with Allegro CL 4.3.2, an early release of the UNIX product on Windows which had limited distribution, not compatibility with Allegro CL 3.0.x on Windows.
This function is provided for porting from Allegro CL 4.3.2 only and
users with 4.3.2 code calling this function are urged to covert the
call to a fslot-address-typed call. (Use
the allocation argument of fslot-address-typed to specify
where the allocation should occur. Specify
:foreign-static-gc for allocation to get
behavior equivalent to this macro.)
type should be an object created by allocate-fobject-fp.
See ftype.htm for information on foreign types in Allegro CL and foreign-functions.htm for general information on foreign functions in Allegro CL.
The documentation is described in introduction.htm and the index is in index.htm.
