Status changed from Assigned to Closed % Done changed from 0 to 100 Applied in changeset r44957. ---------- * include/ruby/ruby.h, internal.h, ext/-test-/bignum/bigzero.c: Hide a Bignum definition. [ruby-core:42891] [Feature #6083] ---------------------------------------- Feature #6083: Hide a Bignum definition https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/6083#change-45164 * Author: Koichi Sasada * Status: Closed * Priority: Normal * Assignee: Yukihiro Matsumoto * Category: * Target version: Next Major ---------------------------------------- Now, the struct RBignum which is a definition of Bignum in C is located in include/ruby/ruby.h. It means we can't change implementation of Bignum. For example, using GMP as Bignum representation. I propose to move the struct RBignum definition from include/ruby/ruby.h to bignum.c. I believe no one use struct RBignum directly (except core). It has possibility to break binary compatibility. ---Files-------------------------------- hide-bignum-internal.patch (4.66 KB) -- http://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
