Rust Bindings Working Group
The Rust bindings working group is dedicated to creating a foundation for C and Rust bindings for C++ libraries used by the media and entertainment industry.
Goals of the WG are:
- To collaborate with ASWF communities to create (or facilitate the creation of) C and Rust bindings which are consistent across projects.
- Create tooling to help build the C and Rust bindings.
- Define a set of conventions and rules to create a consistent and ergonomic C and Rust interface for the wrapped libraries.
- To have the Rust bindings easily accessible through Rust's crates.io repository, and to give ownership of those bindings to the ASWF.
Non-goals of the WG are:
- Re-implementing current C++ libraries in Rust.
The TAC member sponsor of this working group is Sean Looper
Deliverables
- Bind Imath and OpenEXR with C and Rust bindings
- Create a framework for binding the other libraries
