Nim と C の連携でエラー

エラー

C で書いた関数を Nim で使うとき

add.c

int addInts(int a, int b) {
    return a + b;
}

add.nim

{.compile "add.c".}
proc addInts(a, b: cint): cint {.importc.}

when isMainModule:
    echo addInts(3, 7)

みたいにすると

$ nim c -r add.nim

エラーが出る。

解決策

*.nim と *.c の名前は同じにできないらしい。
add.c の名前を logic.c に、
add.nim を calc.nim に変え、

calc.nim

{.compile: "logic.c".}
proc addInts(a, b: cint): cint {.importc.}

when isMainModule:
    echo addInts(3, 7)

のように修正すると

$ nim c -r calc.nim
