Programming with PARI in C++

[Justin Sweeney <justin.sweeney@trincoll.edu>]

Hello,

I am working on a project involving writing a program which uses PARI 
functions. The program is written in C++. One of the functions I am 
using is nextprime(x). I am having problems using this and other 
functions in the C program. Essentially, the compiler is expecting the 
variable 'x' in nextprime(x) to be a long int* and the function 
apparently returns a long int*. Does anyone know anything about passing 
variables to PARI functions in C, such as if they must be this type or 
if that can be changed? Also, if there is somewhere that I can read more 
about this, I would love to further my understanding of this issue. 
Sorry this is such a general question, I am just beginning to delve into 
this area. Thank you all!

Justin
