Wrapping DLLs

G'day all

I'm starting a project to wrap the InterBase headers, and came across a 
couple of examples like:

void load_defaults(const char *conf_file,
                   const char **groups,
		   int *argc,
                   char ***argv);

I'm not a C/C++ programmer, so I'm learning bits and pieces as I work thru 
this project. I think I understand the "int *argc" construct, but how do I 
wrap "const char **groups" and "char ***argv"? Is that last one really 
saying "pointer to a pointer to a pointer to a variable"?
No wonder some people don't like C!

BTW, Topica tells me "access denied" when I try to get to the EUforum list. 
Have I been a bad boy? Have I been banned from the list? Whazzhappenin' ?

Regards
Tony
