Support passing function pointers across the FFI about cxx HOT 5 OPEN

@dtolnay What's the plan for solving this?
You are going to use std::function?
Can I help with the implementation?

@dtolnay What's the plan for solving this? You are going to use std::function? Can I help with the implementation?

Do you have any progress about this?

I want this feature, and as cxx not support it, so I have to use

#[no_mangle]
extern "C" fn register_callback(extern "C" fn(c_int)) {
  todo!()
}

to register function pointer(with specific function signature) on a static memory, and in Rust call the callback

Can I do something for support this feature? @dtolnay and this design is ok?

Here's a pattern to use std::function with current cxx facilities.

Passing function pointers from Rust to C++ was implemented in #79 + #85. It remains to implement passing the reverse direction.

I used this, but it does not support dynamic libraries, can you give me a hand, tks!!
