the functions in a driver written in C++ has the following prototype:

void *Start();

Does anyone know how to convert the above prototype to JADE?

Something like this:

start():Binary is Start in someDll;

The "Start" function in the dll needs to be exported (i.e. able to be called from other applications) in order to do this. You'll need to find out exactly what this function is expected to return, because at teh moment it returns a pointer to untyped memory, so could be anything.
