From 4a70e44f06e637762eec0fd875eb94b84c3f4037 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: _ov4 Date: Thu, 22 Oct 2026 13:27:15 +0000 Subject: feat(codegen): accept pointers to C-struct records in EXTERN signatures A TYPE record whose fields are all C types, C structs or pointer types to C structs now crosses the EXTERN "C" boundary through a pointer type. Records by value are rejected for now, and a pointer to a record with a non-C field names that field.

Expected output was independently traced by AI, not captured from cpsc. + +Basis: compiler extension (EXTERN "C", INCLUDE_OBJ of a user object); a record whose fields are all C types has the layout of the matching C struct. + +Trace: the harness compiles `lib.c` with the host C compiler. Sample matches `struct Sample {char; double; int}`, including the padding after the char. S is 'S', 1.5, 5. scale_sample(^S, 3) multiplies the value through the pointer to 4.5 and leaves tag and count alone, so the first line is `S 4.500000 5`. shared_sample returns the address of the static struct in lib.c, initialised to 'G', 0.5, 7, giving `G 0.500000 7`. P^.Count <- 9 writes through that pointer into the C object, so shared_count() returns 9. -- cgit v1.3.1-4-g156e
