13159 :: Func : NimDestroyGlobals

• zack (orginal) [2025-07-01T13:12:49+02:00] view original

  I'm in the process of upgrading to Nim 2.2.2

  Nim doesn't produce an executable but a lib.dll in my case.

  I always have NimMain function but since upgrading to 2.2.2, I have this new function NimDestroyGlobals that comes up.

  I can't find any information (or I haven't looked properly) on this in the documentation.

  The name of the function is clear but can you tell me a bit more, or tell me where I can find some information.

  Hi, both NimMain and NimDestroyGlobals are explained in Nim Backend Integration Also relevant: Nim Compiler User Guide Or you can view how it's used in nim code https://github.com/search?q=language%3ANim+NimMain&type=code to interfere bidirectionally with C code.

  I knew about NimMain but I hadn't found NimDestroyGlobals in the docs, so I now have my explanation here https://nim-lang.github.io/Nim/backends.html#interfacing-backend-code-calling-nim

  Thanks
