Having thought about this a bit more, I think the request is not actually for a stable C FFI for ObjectStore itself, i.e. a C API that can be used to call any Rust implementation of the ObjectStore trait, but rather a Rust ObjectStore implementation that calls through to a C FFI interface to perform its operations. This has some key implications: * The C FFI can be partial / incomplete / lag the full ObjectStore trait - e.g. it could just support basic range requests * The C FFI could be a simple callback based API, as opposed to needing to shim streams/futures/wakers over the FFI boundary * Can support multiple ABI-incompatible interfaces simultaneously allowing for evolution (provided the ObjectStoreShim is told which one) I think this is probably tractable, although definitely not easy, if someone wanted to do work on this -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
