Description

proc heya* =
  proc zzz {.exportc.} =
    echo "yey"
    
heya()
proc zzz {.importc.}
zzz()

Nim Version

Current Output

@mtestb.nim.c:(.text+0x230): undefined reference to `zzz'

Expected Output

Compiles

Possible Solution

My use case is that zzz is generated by a macro, but not a closure, so it can be called from C safely. Cannot add * to prevent deletion by the compiler as this is not a top level procedure

Workaround:

proc heya* =
  proc zzz {.exportc.} =
    echo "yey"
  if false: zzz()
    
heya()
proc zzz {.importc.}
zzz()
