…ream#41410) A published open generic method has no callable body, but the legacy method table writer still counted it and emitted a reference to the generic template symbol, so a valid class failed at link time with an undefined symbol. Make the counting and writing predicates symmetric and exclude tprocdef.is_generic, as the extended RTTI writer already does. Ordinary published methods and real specializations are unaffected.

Problem. FPC issue #41410: a published open generic method has no callable body, but the legacy method table writer counted it and emitted a reference to the generic template symbol, so a valid
{$M+}class failed at link time with an undefined symbol.Fix. Make the counting and writing predicates in
ncgvmt.passymmetric and excludetprocdef.is_generic, as the extended RTTI writer already does. Ordinary published methods and real specializations are unaffected.Test.
tests/webtbs/tw41410.pp: link error on currentmain, runs after the fix.Validation. Win64 build of
main(a359fc1) with the patch; 405 neighbouring tests fromtests/test(inline, rtti, helpers, generics, opt) give identical results before and after.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
