[Gambas-user] Pointer to Datatypes

good evening all,

i've been having some trouble for a time with pointers in gambas 2. i 
mainly wrote programs in c the last year but now i mainly deal with 
gambas again because my class mates want some gui in the programs at 
school... it would be the greatest thing if i can pass some pointers to 
variables (strings and ints) to a function in a module because a huge 
amount of data has to be written to them directly. i could use a 
collection, too, but if i fill and return it, i have to worry about 
filling the local variables in the calling function. i haven't found 
anything to get the address of a variable or something similar and i 
also don't know if this could mess up some memory management of gambas 
and is therefore not implemented in gb2?

regards,
tobi
