Hi all, I'm trying to do some GLSL shaders with MacRuby. However, I'm a bit stumped as to how to call glGetShaderInfoLog if the shader compilation fails. The C function's prototype is: void glGetShaderInfoLog(GLuint shader, GLsizei maxLength, GLsizei * length, GLchar * infoLog); I couldn't find any docs on how Pointer.new_with_type, so I tried a few things, such as: log_info = Pointer.new_with_type('c', 4096) length = Pointer.new_with_type('i') glGetShaderInfoLog(@shader_id, 4096, length, log_info) However, I get the error: TypeError: can't convert Pointer into String It seems that the bridge wants log_info to be a String object. But, using a String causes a bus error. I'm expecting that the bridge isn't expecting the string to be mutated. Any suggestions would be appreciated! /\/\ike
