ruby_gte_2_7 only.Expand description
Get the new location of an object.
The Value type is effectly a pointer to a Ruby object. Ruby’s garbage
collector will avoid moving objects exposed to extensions, unless the
object has been marked with mark_movable. When implementing
DataTypeFunctions::compact
you will need to update any Ruby objects you are storing.
Returns a new Value that is pointing to the object that value used to
point to. If value hasn’t moved, simply returns value.
