Possible false alarm with `@ccall`?

Open ctessum opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

This issue contains an MWE reporting a possible dynamic dispatch occuring in a @ccall function in the package Proj.jl. However, upon investigation using other methods, it was determined that there was not an actual dynamic dispatch that occurred, even though AllocCheck.jl says that there is.

Thanks for the bug report @ctessum - The bug you're hitting is https://github.com/JuliaLang/AllocCheck.jl/issues/69

That bug needs to be fixed, but in the mean time we know that this "dynamic dispatch" is a false alarm (or rather, we know it's an incomplete part of our scan) so we shouldn't be reporting it as one. I've opened #86 to try to give the user a heads up that this isn't their fault.
