I do know C but am not an expert. I'm creating an interface to the GLUT
library from the language Eiffel. Here is the signature for a function that
I do not understand:
GLUTAPI void APIENTRY glutTimerFunc(unsigned int millis, void (GLUTCALLBACK
*func)(int value), int value);
The part that is giving me a problem is (int value),
Any assistance appreciated.

Assuming reasonable definitions for the three macros...
The second parameter of glutTimerFunc() is a pointer to a function
which takes a single int as a parameter, and returns nothing. IOW,
the function passed as the second parameter must be fined something
matching "void xx(int a) {}".

Off topic. Not portable. Cant discuss it here. Blah, blah, blah.

My thanks to Robert Wellel for your reply, I managed to accomplish what I
was attempting as a result. There was another reply from Kenny McCormack
stating "Off topic. Not portable. Cant discuss it here. Blah, blah,
blah.". I don't know C well enough to comment on the portability of the
function signature in my original post but my understanding is that GLUT is
supposed to be portable. Anyway, I got a response that filled my need.

GLUT is relatively portable, but strictly conforming C programs run on
machines which don't have windowing systems or graphics capabilities,
so technically most of GLUT is off topic here. There is "portable"
and there is "Portable." :) Something like the syntax for a function
declaration is generally always on topic since it isn't specific to a
particular library or anything, and doesn't require assuming anything
about the target platform.

Probably this should be added to the FAQ.
