Onboard programm question

[Tulio]

I'm using contouring mode in my application. My routine is based on the C example 'Buffered Countouting (Rose).c' that comes with MAX. I'm considering to migrate this part of my application (the do-while loop that writes incrementaly to the buffer)to an onboard programm. The amount of data points that I have dosen't fit in the board's memory, so it must be written incrementaly.

My question is:
- Is it possible to use flex_write_buffer from an onboard programm and pass to it a "C pointer-like" to an array that contains my data points in the host's computer memory directly or using onboard variable ?

Thanks !

Unfortunately, no. In order to run contour moves using onboard programming, you must be able to load the entire buffer onto the memory.
