The struct used to store the types (rb_data_type_t) contains a "data"
field where we can store whatever we want. I use that field to store a
pointer to the corresponding destroy function. For example
notmuch_rb_database_type contains a pointer to notmuch_database_destroy.
I cast that pointer as a notmuch_status_t (func*)(void *) and call
that function passing the internal object (e.g. notmuch_database_t).
Using the rb_data_type_t data we can call the correct notmuch destroy
function.
Therefore this:
ret = ((notmuch_status_t (*)(void *)) type->data) (nm_object);
Is effectively the same as this:
ret = notmuch_database_destroy (database);
The advantage of doing it this way is that much less code is necesary
since each rb_data_type_t has the corresponding destroy function stored
in it.

Virtually the whole ruby core moved from RData to RTypeData, let's do so
ourselves too.
Basically the information typically passed through Data_Wrap_Struct is
now stored in a struct rb_data_type_t (mark and free functions). This
has the advantage that more information can be easily added, like the
name of the type, a custom data ponter, and more.
Data_Wrap_Struct is replaced with TypedData_Wrap_Struct, and the
information is stored in a struct rb_data_type_t, rather than passed
as arguments.
Check_Type is replaced with Check_TypedStruct, which is a wrapper for
rb_check_typeddata (with casts).
#define Check_TypedStruct(v, t) \
rb_check_typeddata(RBIMPL_CAST((VALUE)(v)), (t))
We can use rb_check_typeddata directly, just like we use rb_data_object_get
directly.

Many of the external links found in the notmuch source can be resolved
using https instead of http. This changeset addresses as many as i
could find, without touching the e-mail corpus or expected outputs
found in tests.
The Ruby bindings were missing a way to get all the tags of the
database. Now you should be able to access this with the public
instance method `all_tags` of your database object.
Example of use:
notmuchdb = Notmuch::Database.new path, { :create => false,
:mode => Notmuch::MODE_READ_ONLY }
my_tags = notmuchdb.all_tags
my_tags.each { |tag|
print tag
}
my_tags.destroy!
Amended by db: improve error reporting, add test
Some C compilers are stricter when it comes to (tentative) definition
of a variable -- in those compilers introducing variable without 'extern'
keyword always allocates new 'storage' to the variable and linking all
these modules fails due to duplicate symbols.
This is reimplementation of Charlie Allom's patch:
id:"1336481467-66356-1-git-send-email-charlie@mediasp.com",
written originally by Ali Polatel. This version has
more accurate commit message.
According to the common Ruby function naming convention, potentially
dangerous functions or functions which operate on the object itself are
suffixed with an exclamation mark. Both of these are true for object
destroying functions.
The following modules are affected:
- Notmuch::Directory
- Notmuch::FileNames
- Notmuch::Query
- Notmuch::Threads
- Notmuch::Thread
- Notmuch::Messages
- Notmuch::Message
- Notmuch::Tags
Let the user destroy objects that she wants explicitly.
It's not possible to specify the order objects are garbage collected.
