Subject: [ruby-core:96774] [Ruby master Bug#16480] Ruby 2.7, C++, and rb_define_method compilation error
Date: Sat, 11 Jan 2020 01:58:50 +0000 (UTC)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <redmine.journal-83768.20200111015850.259164c13861cc64@ruby-lang.org> (raw)

Issue #16480 has been updated by nobu (Nobuyoshi Nakada).

Status changed from Assigned to Closed

The arities must be eventually compile-time constants for the nature.
I think this case is quite special, and it is resolved in that project.

Bug #16480: Ruby 2.7, C++, and rb_define_method compilation error
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/16480#change-83768

* Author: jasonroelofs (Jason Roelofs)
* Status: Closed
* Priority: Normal
* Assignee: nobu (Nobuyoshi Nakada)
* Target version: 
* ruby -v: ruby 2.7.0p0 (2019-12-25 revision 647ee6f091) [x86_64-darwin18]
* Backport: 2.5: UNKNOWN, 2.6: UNKNOWN
----------------------------------------
I maintain the Rice library which provides constructs for exposing C++ libraries into Ruby. With Ruby 2.7.0 I've got a hard compilation failure that I'm not sure how to fix.[1]

Diving into this, I've found that rb_define_method, when compiled under C++, is now a macro that uses templates to choose the correct overload by the given arity. However, this seems to require a constexpr-compatible use of rb_define_method, making the API unavailable for more dynamic uses[1].

The PR that made these changes is here[3].

I've looked for ways to get around this macro change but have been unable to make anything work. Is there a way I've missed to directly call the underlying C API function or is this now simply not possible with Ruby 2.7.0?
