C late binding with unknown arguments

by

This is a hard problem without, unfortunately, good or easy answers.

See this former SO question: Run-time parameters in gcc (inverse va_args/varargs)

See this C FAQ question: http://c-faq.com/varargs/invvarargs.html

See this collection of “wacky ideas” by the C FAQ list maintainer: http://c-faq.com/varargs/wacky.html

Addendum: see this former SO question: How to call functions by their pointers passing multiple arguments in C?

…which mentions “libffi”: http://sourceware.org/libffi/
