** NB: This is an API break for OCaml programs using Guestfs.event_callback. ** Because of the way I implemented Guestfs.event_callback which had the Guestfs.t handle as the first parameter, we had to store the (OCaml) Guestfs.t handle in the C handle's private data area. To do that, we had to create a global root pointing to the handle. This of course meant that the handle could not be garbage collected (thanks Roman Kagan for spotting this). This changes the API of Guestfs.event_callback so that a handle is no longer passed. The OCaml handle can now be garbage collected again. For programs that need the Guestfs.t handle in the callback function (which turns out to be *none* of the OCaml programs we have written), you can do: g#set_event_callback (callback_fn g) [Guestfs.EVENT_FOO]; But since the closure passed to Guestfs.set_event_callback is still (unavoidably) registered as a global root, that will trap a reference to the handle, so the handle won't be able to be garbage collected until you delete the callback. --- generator/ocaml.ml | 10 +++------- mllib/progress.ml | 4 ++-- ocaml/guestfs-c.c | 24 +++--------------------- ocaml/t/guestfs_410_close_event.ml | 2 +- ocaml/t/guestfs_420_log_messages.ml | 2 +- ocaml/t/guestfs_430_progress_messages.ml | 2 +- 6 files changed, 11 insertions(+), 33 deletions(-) diff --git a/generator/ocaml.ml b/generator/ocaml.ml index 8b4e1aa..5d92fcb 100644 --- a/generator/ocaml.ml +++ b/generator/ocaml.ml @@ -107,8 +107,7 @@ val event_all : event list type event_handle (** The opaque event handle which can be used to delete event callbacks. *) -type event_callback = - t -> event -> event_handle -> string -> int64 array -> unit +type event_callback = event -> event_handle -> string -> int64 array -> unit (** The event callback. *) val set_event_callback : t -> event_callback -> event list -> event_handle @@ -117,9 +116,7 @@ val set_event_callback : t -> event_callback -> event list -> event_handle Note that if the closure captures a reference to the handle, this reference will prevent the handle from being - automatically closed by the garbage collector.
