Hi Riccardo, thanks for the information.
Yes, I think it would be quite useful, but I guess it would have to be mostly auto-generated, otherwise it would be too much work (and hard to maintain). The GSoC SWIG 2012 branch does indeed not seem to have made it into master (https://github.com/swig/swig/tree/gsoc2012-c/). Kind regards, Axel On 26.04.20 21:44, Riccardo Vianello wrote:

This would make it easier to bind the toolkit to other programming languages, in addition to Python and Java. I'm not aware of any active/existing projects, but I've been also thinking about this possibility in a couple of occasions. Could the existing SWIG interface be perused for this? as far as I know, this isn't (or at least wasn't) directly possible. SWIG includes the core functionality required to generate these wrappers, but C is not a supported target language. Last time I checked a mostly functional but not ready to merge GSoC branch existed, that was aimed at providing this feature, but I am not sure it made any progress. Best, Riccardo
