Use CBinding.jl to automatically create C library bindings with Julia at runtime. In order to support the fully automatic conversion and avoid name collisions, the names of C types or functions are mangled a bit to work in Julia. Therefore everything generated by CBinding.jl can be accessed with the c"..." string macro to indicate that it lives in C-land. As an example, the function func above is available in Julia as c"func". It is possible to store the generated bindings to more user-friendly names (this can sometimes be automated, see the j option). Placing each C declaration in its own macro helps when doing this manually.

Features

  • Fully supports C's struct, union, and enum types
  • Alignment strategies
  • Anonymous types
  • Inline functions (experimental opt-in)
  • Function calling conventions
  • Automatic callback function pointers
