[cffi-devel] translate-type-from-foreign

[Sean]

Hi all,
 I've noticed that in the upgrade from cffi 0.9.1 to 0.9.2 that there 
 were a few lines removed from early-types.lisp namely :


-;; Default Translators for foreign-struct-type
-(defmethod translate-type-from-foreign (value (type
foreign-struct-type))
-  (translate-from-foreign value (name type)))
-
-(defmethod translate-type-to-foreign (value (type foreign-struct-type))
-  (translate-to-foreign value (name type)))


I've been specialising translate-to-foreign to automatically convert c
structures to their equivalent lisp counterparts but without these lines
this obviously no longer works. 

Was this removal deliberate and if so what is the preferred way to
accomplish this?


Cheers,
  Sean.
