Get child item (Scilab gateway)

How to get the address of a list child.

Calling Sequence

SciErr getListItemAddress(void* _pvCtx, int* _piAddress, int _iItemNum, int** _piItemAddress)

Arguments

:_pvCtx Scilab environment pointer, pass in “pvApiCtx” provided by

api_scilab.h.

: :_piAddress Address of the list. : :_iItemNum Item number. : :_piItemAddress Return address of the item. : :SciErr Error structure where is stored errors messages history and

first error number.
