"pointer foreign finalizer fcide" not working

[kolmodin]

Using C->Haskell Interface Version C->Haskell Compiler, version 0.28.1 Switcheroo, 1 April 2016

I'm defining a pointer

data CChannel
{#pointer *channel as Channel foreign finalizer channel_destroy -> CChannel#}

However, the finalizer is only added in {#fun#} declarations in the same file. Fun declarations in other files don't get the finalizer.

The .chi file doesn't mention the finalizer function.

I have the same question. I thought the finalizer would be used in default out marshaller. But it is just newForeignPtr_. Unless GHC would call the finalizer itself, I think there is something wrong and has this function correctly working.
