Hi Wang,
Thanks for the bug report, but I think you misunderstand.
symbol_get() does not take a string, it takes an identifier. This
way, we can ensure the type is correct. eg.
/* In header somewhere. */
extern int their_integer;
....
int *ptr = symbol_get(their_integer);
if (!ptr) ...
Does that help?
Rusty.
