Exported statics aren't declared in the generated header about cbindgen HOT 7 CLOSED

Yeah cbindgen should definitely be able to handle this.

Finding static declarations won't be too challenging, the harder part is knowing which ones to output. Right now we only output declarations that are using by the FFI, but that won't work here.

I suppose we could just output all static items with #[no_mangle] as they are all probably meant to be exported.

That's the behaviour I'd expect, I don't know of any reason for not mangling names other than for FFI export.

@eqrion what about const?

@eqrion what about const?

I was about to open an issue for this, but looks like it's already been mentioned. I reckon const statements should be converted to a #define. This'll work fine for integers and strings, but I haven't put much thought into more complex types...

At least numbers support will be fine for now.

Fixed in 0.1.27. Please reopen if you're still having an issue with this.
