How does one create a C function pointer from a Scheme function in Guile?

Question

I am trying to write a wrapper for a C library that contains a function which takes another function to achieve polymorphism (i.e. a generic function). I would like to write my wrapper such that it takes a Scheme function and passes it to the generic function as a C function pointer. Does Guile provide functionality that would allow me to turn a Scheme function into a C function pointer?

Can you post a code example in which you would like your function pointer to show up? — curious_weather, Sep 20 '16 at 07:11

You have to use procedure->pointer procedure which is described in the manual.
