GblMarshalFn

typedef GBL_RESULT(* GblMarshalFn) (GblClosure *pClosure, GblVariant *pRetValue, size_t argCount, GblVariant *pArgs, GblPtr pMarshalData)

#include <gimbal_marshal.h>

Function signature for a generic marshal function.

Marshal functions form the basis of the closure system, and are used by all GblClosure instances. They are the primary entry point for generic function invocation, and are the glue between a generic GblClosure and an actual language-dependent real function call.

They take a generic list of arguments, marshal them into an actual function (which is typically stored with GblClosure), then demarshal out the return type.
