This is the code that would be required to implement "poisoning" in the face of panics, which we need because the FFI functions catch panics and let the
*mut FileHandle
be used later.Unfortunately we need to add a
poisoned
flag which is checked in each vtable method instead of just FFI functions. Otherwise it is possible for a panic to occur when calling a function likeffi::file_handle_write()
and the writer's internals get corrupted, then you pass the*mut FileHandle
to Rust and try to callOwnedFileHandle
'swrite()
method, letting you observe a FUBAR writer.Fixes #1.
