  • Plugin.Call can return one or more values, each of then can be:
  • 64-bit integer, floating point number, string or boolean value.
  • For that, the invoked plugin must fill in the FarMacroCall structure and return the pointer to it.
  • This structure must be either static or allocated, i.e. do not place it in OpenW function's stack.
  • If non-zero Callback is specified in the structure then the function will be called.
  • At the moment of Callback call the data is already copied and can be freed.
  • If the plugin wants just return true or false then it has to return 1 or 0 accordingly.
  • The change introduced in build 2891 is cancelled by this one.
