[mercury-users] number of args for bag.init exported to C

[Guillaume Yziquel]

Hi.

I'm exporting the bag.init function with the following pragma:

	:- pragma foreign_export("C", bag.init(out), "no_props").

And the C function prototype that is exported is:

	void no_props(MR_Word, MR_Word *);

What is the meaning of the first argument? There is no 'in' argument in
the Mercury code, and yet it shows in the C function prototype. More
importantly: what should I set it to?

I tried investigation the C code, but the way Mercury generates code
with kind of virtual registers doesn't lend itself to an immediate
understanding of the C code for bag.init.
