Subject: bdw-gc includes in libguile.h
Date: Fri, 25 Mar 2011 10:38:30 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <m3tyerh755.fsf@unquote.localdomain> (raw)
Hello,
I think we made a mistake in exposing bdw-gc.h to libguile.h users.
gc.h is quite scrupulous to not include it, but smob.h, inline.h
(sometimes), and pthread-threads.h pull it in.
Besides the modularity concerns that lead us to need to add bdw-gc libs
and cflags to Guile's libs and cflags, there is an acute problem, and
that is that we enable pthread redirects -- so users of libguile get
pthread_create et al re-#defined.
I think that in 2.2 we should not expose libgc interfaces in libguile,
and that in 2.0 we should disable pthread redirects.
Andy
