How does this work in the context of modular programming?
Does the compiler generate multiple code for each case, to make
the code work regardless of what is decided at the call site?
Or is the code written in a canonical form inside the module,
which gets to be rewritten when all modules are linked into the
final binary?
By modules I mean the case where you only have a .di file +
binary code for the module. For me the right form to distribute
libraries.
I think it is reasonable to say that this will not work is the
compiler don't have callee's implementation.
