/* compiler */ update(); (1) (since 1.6.0)

Initialize the data used during method dispatch.
This function must be called before any method is called (typically in main).
It must also be called after a shared library is dynamically loaded or unloaded,
if the library adds method declarations, method definitions, or classes derived
from classes that are used as virtual arguments.
(1) and (3) operate on the default policy. (2) and (4) operate on the specified policy.
Since version 1.6.0, update returns a “compiler” object of an unspecified
type, which contains information gathered while compiling dispatch data. The
only documented member is report, a struct containing the following values:
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| cells | total number of cells used by v-tables and multi-method dispatch tables |
| not_implemented | total number of argument combinations with no applicable definition |
| ambiguous | total number of argument combinations that cannot be resolved due to ambiguities |
int main() {
yorel::yomm2::update();
// call methods
// if using dynamically loaded libraries
void* handle = dlopen("mylib.so", RTLD_NOW);
yorel::yomm2::update();
// classes, methods, and definitions from mylib.so are available
dlclose(handle);
yorel::yomm2::update();
// classes, methods, and definitions from mylib.so are no longer available
return 0;
