Summary
Previously, when given an OpenQASM 2 program such as
and a set of
custom_instructions
including abuiltin=True
definition forbuiltin
(but not fornot_builtin
), the Rust and Python sides would get themselves out-of-sync and output a gate that matched a prior definition, rather thannot_builtin
.This was because the Rust side was still issuing
DefineGate
bytecode instructions, even for gates whose OpenQASM 2 definitions should have been ignored, so Python-space thought there were more gates than Rust-space thought there were.Details and comments
