This is a design study to find out what would be required to build an opaque function wrapper, similar to `std::function`, yet without using any heap memory ever. Such a building block would allow for some interesting options for a well structured design of elaborate data structures. This changeset provides an implementation draft. __Two important findings to note__: * it is impossible to get away with just a single function pointer * because at the very least we need to invoke the destructor of the embedded delegate. Thus something akin to a "manager" is required. * this implies that the component would not be so efficient as I hoped, since it requires two pointers and requires to emit code for each type of delegate. * by making the component **NonCopyable**, I avoided the complexities of virtual copy support. In case the latter is desired, it would be much simpler to switch to a classical OO approach with a VTable and use our `PolymorphicValue` wrapper to handle copy and cloning. |
