  1. Package: libffi-dev
  2. Version: 3.2.1-r0.0
  3. Description: A portable foreign function interface library - Development files
  4. The `libffi' library provides a portable, high level programming
  5. interface to various calling conventions. This allows a programmer to
  6. call any function specified by a call interface description at run time.
  7. FFI stands for Foreign Function Interface. A foreign function interface
  8. is the popular name for the interface that allows code written in one
  9. language to call code written in another language. The `libffi' library
  10. really only provides the lowest, machine dependent layer of a fully
  11. featured foreign function interface. A layer must exist above `libffi'
  12. that handles type conversions for values passed between the two
  13. languages. This package contains symbolic links, header files, and
  14. related items necessary for software development.
