[v5,3/8] kernel-shark-qt: Add C++/C conversion for args of a plugin draw function.

Commit Message

Yordan Karadzhov Sept. 20, 2018, 4:55 p.m. UTC

The draw function of a plugin has a type declared in C. However, the
function needs to access some high level objects, defined in the C++
libraries. This patch adds instruments for converting the arguments
of the plugin's draw function from C++ to C and from C to C++.
