Something like this should work: let client: hello_capnp::hello::Client = capnp_rpc::new_client(HelloImpl); let mut req = self.session_context.fulfill_request_request(); req.get().get_cap().set_as_capability(client.client.hook);
What'a happening here is that capnproto-rust does not have specific support for the :Capability type, so it falls back to a general AnyPointer. The client.client.hook thing is admittedly ugly. I think we can make that nicer by adding an IntoInternalClientHook trait, as I commented here: https://github.com/capnproto/capnproto-rust/issues/226#issuecomment-887604513 On Fri, Aug 27, 2021 at 12:38 AM Troy Farrell <troyjfarr...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hello everyone, > > I posted a message to the Sandstorm list about trying to set a Capability > field on a Params struct using capnproto-rust: > https://groups.google.com/g/sandstorm-dev/c/Mim3T5C7WUA/m/kuJcPmbZDQAJ > > It seems that capnproto-rust does not support Capabilities.
