You have read the wrong section in the FAQ.  The one which speaks 
directly about this matter is section 18.2; it also includes an example 
of working code which does something similar.

Section 18.4 explains a bit more how to move data between the transfer 
buffer and your program.

(Be sure to read the latest version of the FAQ, v2/faq230b.zip.)
