Generates C# bindings for Interoptopus.
Usage
Assuming you have written a crate containing your FFI logic called example_library_ffi
and
want to generate C# bindings, follow the instructions below.
Inside Your Library
Add Interoptopus attributes to the library you have written, and define an inventory function listing all symbols you wish to export. An overview of all supported constructs can be found in the reference project.
use interoptopus::{ffi_function, ffi_type, Inventory, InventoryBuilder, function};
#[ffi_type]
#[repr(C)]
pub struct Vec2 {
pub x: f32,
pub y: f32,
}
#[ffi_function]
#[no_mangle]
pub extern "C" fn my_function(input: Vec2) -> Vec2 {
input
}
pub fn my_inventory() -> Inventory {
InventoryBuilder::new()
.register(function!(my_function))
.inventory()
}
Add these to your Cargo.toml
so the attributes and the binding generator can be found
(replace ...
with the latest version):
[lib]
crate-type = ["cdylib", "rlib"]
[dependencies]
interoptopus = "..."
interoptopus_backend_csharp = "..."
Create a unit test in tests/bindings.rs
which will generate your bindings when run
with cargo test
. In real projects you might want to add this code to another crate instead:
use interoptopus::util::NamespaceMappings;
use interoptopus::{Error, Interop};
#[test]
fn bindings_csharp() -> Result<(), Error> {
use interoptopus_backend_csharp::{Config, Generator};
use interoptopus_backend_csharp::overloads::{DotNet, Unity};
let config = Config {
dll_name: "example_library".to_string(),
namespace_mappings: NamespaceMappings::new("My.Company"),
..Config::default()
};
Generator::new(config, example_library_ffi::my_inventory())
.add_overload_writer(DotNet::new())
//.add_overload_writer(Unity::new())
.write_file("bindings/csharp/Interop.cs")?;
Ok(())
}
Now run cargo test
.
If anything is unclear you can find a working sample on Github.
Generated Output
The output below is what this backend might generate. Have a look at the Config
struct
if you want to customize something. If you really don't like how something is generated it is
easy to create your own.

using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
using My.Company;

{

/// Function using the type.
[DllImport(NativeLib, CallingConvention = CallingConvention.Cdecl, EntryPoint = "my_function")]
public static extern Vec2 my_function(Vec2 input);
}
