Data input/output via I/O drivers

Description
Use I/O drivers to handle Mosel output with a callback function, compile a model from memory to memory, load a bim file from memory, initialise arrays in the Model program from .NET objects and retrieve information from the model through memory.

  • mmexdrvs_cbinit-cs: using 'dotnet:' I/O driver for data exchange via callbacks
  • mmexdrvs_raw-cs: using 'dotnetraw:' I/O driver for data exchange in memory
  • mmexdrvs_stream-cs: using 'dotnet:' I/O driver with streams for data exchange in memory
Further explanation of this example: 'Mosel Library Reference .NET doc'; Whitepaper 'Generalized file handling in Mosel'
