Re: GNUstep CoreBase and ARC

[Stefan Bidigaray]

This incompatibility came up last month, too.  I wanted to consult David C., who wrote the GNUstep runtime (where the ARC code is) just to double check that it was as straight forward as it seems.  But after some thought, I think this is an easy enough fix.  The code is only the way it is because of some historic reasons, anyway.  I won't have time to do anything with it today, but will check on it this weekend.  I'll let you know when its done and you can check the code out again from SVN.

I was trying to compile some existing OS X code, in which made heavy use of Toll-Free bridging between CoreFoundation and Foundation and is written using ARC. It doesn’t compile on GNUstep at all.

The culprit is that the toll-free bridging code typedef’d Foundation types to CF types. This is not allowed in ARC.

Is there any workaround possible? Or should we consider rewriting CoreBase into some more Apple like fashion?
