I cannot seem to figure out how to pass NULL as an argument to a function through the C interface. I’m using Ref{UInt8} as the argument type. I’m thinking that I could probably declare it as an Int and just pass 0, but of course the argument could in fact be a valid pointer to data i’ve created in…

Passing NULL as an argument through ccall?
