Function

Signature:
val setPtrType : { ptr:c_object, data:c_object } -> unit

Description:

This sets the c_type of the data addressed by the pointer ptr to the c_type specified by the object data. The c_type of ptr can be any pointer c_type and the c_type of data can be arbitrary. The current pointer mode is preserved.
