Same as last version, LGTM!
I've got a GDExtension that I'm planning to keep at 4.3 for the time being, so I'm hoping to test this soon. But no need to wait for that, if I run into issues I can open follow-up PRs with fixes.

Isn't get_validated_object available in 4.3? Edit: Ah, it depends on operator ObjectID()...

Yeah, we didn't have a way to get the ObjectID from the Variant back in 4.3 and earlier, which is why variant_get_object_instance_id was added to the GDExtension interface in 4.4

This is the next "godot-cpp v10" PR - it builds on top of:
api_versionbuild option to select the API JSON file #1897This one adds back support for Godot 4.3, and includes the
extension_api.jsonfor 4.3, such that you can build viascons api_version=4.3out-of-the-boxThis one was the trickiest so far, and will definitely need more testing before we can merge it. It's also made me think that perhaps supporting back to Godot 4.3 is far enough?
The changes we'd need to make for Godot 4.2 and 4.1 would be pretty extensive (given how much stuff we changed back then) and probably not all that worth it, given how old those versions are.
Also, Godot 4.3 is the earliest version that supports loading documentation from a GDExtension, which seems like a good reason for targeting that as a minimum.
Marked as DRAFT because it depends on the other "godot-cpp v10" PRs
