I used ffi-swig-generatorn and that's where I found the problems where it generated :string but I needed :pointer

The code in my gist uses the minimum attached functions to implement the same DeviceCheck program in the Vernier SDK. I'm usingthe generated template to copy (and sometimes correct) from.

Next I take a look at using some of the generated struct templates and see if they work.
