This was indeed the impression I got. With reference to my original
questions regarding its use, perhaps you could suggest some way to
actually use this API then, in order to solve my problem?
Unless there's some subtle detail or trick I have misunderstood, it
doesn't appear to be easily possible in this manner.
How would you suggest I manage these pointers and data structures?
