HI ALl,
1.
use NativeCall;
2.
3.
class TopWindow {...}
4.
5.
class TopWindow is repr('CPointer') is export {
6.
7.
sub TopWindow_TopWindow_c() returns TopWindow is
symbol('TopWindow_TopWindow_c') is native("whatever") { * }
8.
9.
multi method new() returns TopWindow {
10.
return TopWindow_TopWindow_c();}
11.
12.
}
13.
14.
15.
my $t = TopWindow.new();
if I run this,
I get
Unknown type TopWindow used in native call.
If you want to pass a struct, be sure to use the CStruct representation.
If you want to pass an array, be sure to use the CArray type.

if you remove class TopWindow {...}, it starts working.
I need to forward reference TopWindow as it is used in other classes,
function calls.
And other may need it too "en el futuro"
