Error when trying to @cImport libuv (uv.h)

[wanton gust]

I am using zig master 0.11.0-dev.1438+5d46addd2

I tried importing libuv like this:

const c = @cImport({
  @cInclude("uv.h");
});

but got the same old error as in this old closed issue
https://github.com/ziglang/zig/issues/12471#issuecomment-1219839044

error: dependency loop detected
pub const uv_close_cb = ?*const fn ([*c]uv_handle_t) callconv(.C) void;
~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I don't really understand why this is happening, as the github issue is marked as resolved but I am still getting the same error with the newest version.

It does not look like the same issue though

The original issue was for this error:

.../zig-cache/o/e37ac1d01edd5da25d95ea916308d281/cimport.zig:5615:30: error: use of undeclared identifier 'sched_priority'                                               pub const __sched_priority = sched_priority;                                                                      ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~    

Which was due to how zig handled self defined macros

Ok once the original issue was solved the reporter reported the issue you have in a comment saying that they were not going to open another issue because it was not happening in stage1. So apparently it was never solved.

githubs fault for not adding the issue comment hash to the embed url

So basically the issue still persists?

There is a couple of other in the issue tracker

One of the comment point at a workaround.

But you need to change the zig compiler itself.

Yeah okay don't really wanna do that
