This tool generate Scala Native bindings from C headers. It's build upon clang and Libtooling and thus respect the conventions of clang-tools.
Calling the tool is pretty easy, you need to specify the file(s) and the name of the created bindings.
./scalaBindgen /usr/include/uv.h -name uv --
Running the previous command wild also yield warnings along with the translation. To keep only the bindings please redirect the output to a file like this:
./scalaBindgen /usr/include/uv.h -name uv -- > uv.scala
Building this tool require building LLVM and Clang. This can take hours. Please consider using pre-built binaries.
- Follow the building instructions for Clang (Only step 0)
- Go to
llvm/tools/clang/tools/extra - Clone this repository
git clone https://github.com/mrRosset/scala-native-bindgen scala-bindgen - Add
add_subdirectory(scala-bindgen)to the CMakeLists.txt in the extra folder - Re-run the llvm/clang compilation
