Export static variable entry points #146

Closed tonyvfish closed 1 year ago

tonyvfish commented 1 year ago

Hello I am looking at working with the new CLAP audio plugin and its export definition is CLAP_EXPORT extern const clap_plugin_entry_t clap_entry; A static variable and not a function Is it possible in someway to do this from managed code, export a static variable and not a function ?

@tonyvfish Unfortunately no there isn't, at least at present. This has been a request though previously, perhaps @jkotas recalls where. DNNE does support including additional translation units (that is, C files). It would be entirely possible to have that included in the final binary but would need to be written in C.

I believe NativeAOT supports this, but that is also something that I would defer to @jkotas.

Regardless, if anyone has a suggestion on how this might work I am more than willing to add support.

NativeAOT does not support this either.

Including additional C file is the only way to do this.

@tonyvfish I am going to close this as there are no present plans to add this feature. I've updated the FAQ with how it could be achieved and the current recommended approach.
