Descrizione
I had a crack at implementing CxxVector<*mut T> and CxxVector<*const T> here:
https://github.com/dtolnay/cxx/compare/master...adetaylor:ptr-vecs-wip
It didn't work out too well, (I think) because we try to impl ::cxx::private::VectorElement for *const BlobstoreClient and the orphan rule doesn't appear to allow us to do this.
error[E0117]: only traits defined in the current crate can be implemented for arbitrary types
--> demo/src/main.rs:26:33

1 | #[cxx::bridge(namespace = "org::blobstore")]
| -------------------------------------------- `*const BlobstoreClient` is not defined in the current crate
...
26 | fn foo(n: u64) -> UniquePtr<CxxVector<*const BlobstoreClient>>;
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ impl doesn't use only types from inside the current crate
|
= note: define and implement a trait or new type instead
error: aborting due to previous error
For more information about this error, try `rustc --explain E0117`.
I may have the wrong idea for what went wrong here, but it looks like RFC1023 does indeed mention references but not pointers.
I'm unlikely to come back to this any time soon but thought I'd report my findings.
