Let me expound on this as I may not have been clear on what I'm asking.

I am a Delphi (ObjectPascal) programmer mostly (done some C#, but is the 
closest to C I've come) and I would like to write some add-on to 
Asterisk in Lazarus/Freepascal but I am unsure of the calling 
convention, actually anything at all about the code of Asterisk.

Thanks again for any input.
