Pointers Generator

1. Create Configuration (like ffi-gen-config.php)

// Example C/C++ header declaration:
//
// typedef struct MyExampleStruct { ... } MyExampleStruct;
// extern void foo(MyExampleStruct* a);
// extern void foo(MyExampleStruct** b);
// 

return [
    'out'   => __DIR__ . '/resources/stubs',
    'types' => [
        'MyExampleStruct' => ['pointers' => 2],
    //  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^                   ^ - Number of pointers.
    //  Your Class Name                        Number 2 means that will be created
    //                                         "MyExampleStructPtr" and "MyExampleStructPtrPtr" pointers
    ],
];
