TypedCallable provides a wrapper for callable objects, with the following benefits: 1. Enforced type-stability (for concrete AT/RT types) 2. Fast calling convention (frequently < 10 ns / call) 3. Normal Julia dispatch semantics (sees new Methods, etc.) + invoke_latest 4. Pre-compilation support (including `--trim` compatibility) It can be used like this: ```julia callbacks = @TypedCallable{(::Int,::Int)->Bool}[] register_callback!(callbacks, f::F) where {F<:Function} = push!(callbacks, @TypedCallable f(::Int,::Int)::Bool) register_callback!(callbacks, (x,y)->(x == y)) register_callback!(callbacks, (x,y)->(x != y)) @Btime callbacks[rand(1:2)](1,1) ``` This is very similar to the existing `FunctionWrappers.jl`, but there are a few key differences: - Better type support: TypedCallable supports the full range of Julia types (incl. Varargs), and it has access to all of Julia's "internal" calling conventions so calls are fast (and allocation-free) for a wider range of input types - Improved dispatch handling: The `@cfunction` functionality used by FunctionWrappers has several dispatch bugs, which cause wrappers to occasionally not see new Methods. These bugs are fixed (or soon to be fixed) for TypedCallable. - Pre-compilation support including for `juliac` / `--trim` (#55047) Many of the improvements here are actually thanks to the `OpaqueClosure` introduced by @Keno - This type just builds on top of OpaqueClosure to provide an interface with Julia's usual dispatch semantics.
