4963 :: C2NIM - trailing underscore

• mantielero (orginal) [2019-06-23T19:14:04+02:00] view original

  I am getting the following code (an extract) after executing c2nim:

  when defined(STRICTUNZIP) or defined(STRICTZIPUNZIP):
    ##  like the STRICT of WIN32, we define a pointer that cannot be converted
    ##     from (void*) without cast
    type
      unzFile__* {.bycopy.} = object
        unused*: cint
      
      unzFile* = ptr unzFile__
  else:
    type
      unzFile* = voidp
  Run

  But when I try to use it, it complains about the trainling underscore:

  unzip.nim(63, 5) Error: invalid token: trailing underscore

  which is the line:

  unzFile__* {.bycopy.} = object
  Run

  What can I do?

  Use c2nim's #mangle directive, read its manual.
