Re: [Rubycocoa-talk] ObjcPtr and NSBitmapImageRep

[Laurent S. <lsa...@ap...>]

Seems expected, since the method is declared to return a 'unsigned  
char *'. So, RubyCocoa is returning you a Ruby string. However, during  
the conversion, some data may be lost, if there is for example a 0  
byte in the middle. I think that we should change the BridgeSupport  
metadata to mark this method returning a 'void *' instead, so that  
RubyCocoa will use an ObjcPtr.
