minus-square@Vorpal@programming.devlinkfedilink2•2 years agoSeems rather limited: only targeting some high level languages. Now, if this could also generate C++ bindings i would be very interested.
minus-square@Knusper@feddit.delinkfedilink2•2 years agoHmm, but Rust has native generation of C bindings. Is there a big difference with C+±specific bindings?
minus-square@snaggen@programming.devlinkfedilinkEnglish4•2 years agoIf you refer to bindgen it also supports C++, and since Mozilla who was the main driver of rust uses C++ I assume the bindgen for that is pretty good.
minus-square@Knusper@feddit.delinkfedilink2•2 years agoAh, thanks. I did not know that, but I figured, if C+±specific bindings make sense, then Mozilla would have built something for that, before working on UniFFI.
