Hello Raptor2-users,
we want to use raptor2 in our C++ library-project and are implementing a
class that uses raptor2 internally and hides its use to other
developers/users.
Therefore we decided to use forward declarations to raptor2 structs
(e.g. raptor_term ) in our headers, such that other developers using our
library do no necessarily need to point to raptor2 headers as well.
We only use the raptor2 headers in the implementation-files.
No we encountered a problem:
Unfortunately "raptor_term" is an unnamed struct where a forward
declaration is not possible, at least to my knowledge.
We see possibilities to use void pointers and reinterpret_casts instead
of pointers to a raptor_term or maybe a solution similar to the one
pointed out here: http://stackoverflow.com/a/8833176
Both solutions are not nice and I would like to change this to a more
safer/clearer version.
Are there any other suggestions or ideas how to deal with this?
And another question regarding the unnamed structs in raptor2: Is there
any chance that it will be changed to named structs in future releases
of raptor2? I think this might ease the use of raptor2 in c++ code, at
least in the described case and as far as I am aware of the possible
solutions right now.
I am looking forward to any comment or help on this issue.
Best Regards,
Christian Waechter
