Unable to create ref-array-di inside ref-struct-di

[berendsliedrecht]

(I created the same issue here as it concerns both libraries)

I am trying to create a structure, ByteBuffer which contains a len as the length of the array and a reference to an array. The array is created with ref-array-di and the struct with ref-struct-di.

When passing the array into the struct, and dereferencing it afterwards, gives an empty array back. While dereferencing the referenced array gives the complete data back.

When I manually assign the type of array to byteBuffer.data, but this can not be done outside of this example (as I do not have the array object there).

import refArray from "ref-array-di"
import refStruct from "ref-struct-di"
import * as ref from "ref-napi"

const CArray = refArray(ref)
const CStruct = refStruct(ref)

const ByteBufferArray = CArray(ref.types.uint8)

const ByteBufferStruct = CStruct({
  data: ref.refType(ByteBufferArray),
  len: ref.types.int64,
})

const array = new ByteBufferArray(Array(10).fill(10))

// @ts-ignore
const byteBuffer = new ByteBufferStruct({ len: array.length, data: array.ref() })

const fromStruct = new Uint8Array(byteBuffer.data.deref())
const fromArray = new Uint8Array(array)

const isSameLength = fromStruct.length === fromArray.length
if (!isSameLength) {
  console.error(`fromStruct: [${fromStruct}]`)
  console.error(`fromArray: [${fromArray}]`)
} else {
  console.log("it works!")
}
