5594 :: Problem with .exportc-marked variable containing proc reference

• drkameleon (orginal) [2019-11-26T10:58:45+01:00] view original

  I have the following type:

  SystemFunctionCall[F,X,V]   = proc(f: F, xl: X): V {.inline.}
  Run

  And the following type containing it:

  Statement = ref object
          pos: int
          case kind: StatementKind:
              of commandStatement:
                  code            : int
                  #call            : SystemFunctionCall[SystemFunction,ExpressionList,Value]
                  arguments       : ExpressionList
              of callStatement:
                  id              : int
                  expressions     : ExpressionList
              of assignmentStatement:
                  symbol          : int
                  rValue          : Statement
              of expressionStatement:
                  expression      : Expression
  Run

  I'm also exporting a variable of Statement type.

  However, the compiler seems to have a problem with my SystemFunctionCall -type field.

  Any workarounds?

  Assumption without testing: an inlined proc doesn't have an address, so it can't be a field value.

  I think, when you are using generics inside an object, than the object may need generics as well, so maybe try something like Statement[SystemFunction,ExpressionList,Value] = ref object ?

  Just a guess.
