#7015: Add support for 'static' -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: edsko | Owner: Type: feature | Status: patch request | Milestone: 7.10.1 Priority: normal | Version: 7.4.2 Component: Compiler | Keywords: Resolution: | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Operating System: | Difficulty: Unknown Unknown/Multiple | Blocked By: Type of failure: | Related Tickets: None/Unknown | Test Case: | Blocking: | Differential Revisions: Phab:D119 | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by simonpj): Agreed. No way should the design mandate any particular implementation for `unStatic`! My current proposals are outlined here [blog:simonpj/StaticPointers]. There is haze around Plan A/B/C near the end, but I'm veering towards some variant of Plan A.
