I got an AI to suggest a syntax and definition for a special compiler directive for configuration of the open array arguments in the DPI-OO inter-language calls.
We propose to add a new directive that can be provided in a compilation unit or a package scope:
`dpi_oo_open_array [handle | STL]
This compiler directive shall be documented as a new sub-section of section 22 "Compiler directives".
When `dpi_oo_open_array is specified, it affects all the open array arguments in the corresponding scope. I think that such granularity is sufficient to support VIP's of both kinds: legacy Dpi-C-oriented and new DPI-OO-oriented VIP's. It's reasonable to expect that different VIP API's will be encapsulated in different packages or compilation units.
I can send a new version of the DPI-OO proposal, containing the proposed modifications, this week - so that we'll be able to vote at the next meeting.
Regards,
Vitaly
