namespace ns {
struct Foo { unsigned short _h; };

The struct Foo

instead of libnative.Foo
as expected
using System;

A fixed size buffer of a typedef of a primitive generates improperly:
C
typedef uint64_t ecs_id_t;
typedef struct ecs_bulk_desc_t {
ecs_id_t ids[32];
}
C#
public readonly partial struct ecs_id_t : IEquatable<ecs_id_t> { ... }
public unsafe partial struct ecs_bulk_desc_t
{
public fixed IEquatable<ecs_id_t> ids[32];
}
The code path being hit that generates this is https://github.com/xoofx/CppAst.CodeGen/blob/master/src/CppAst.CodeGen/CSharp/Plugins/DefaultTypeConverter.cs#L177
Not sure what the correct way to resolve this is.
This one particular struct was improperly generated using a fixed keyword and a generated type.
c++
/*! Desired configuration of the input system. */
typedef struct InputConfiguration {
/*! Desired degrees-of-freedom mode of each controller. */
InputControllerDof dof[Input_MaxControllers];
} InputConfiguration;
C#
/// <summary>
/// Desired configuration of the input system.
/// </summary>
[StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential, CharSet = CharSet.Ansi)]
public unsafe partial struct InputConfiguration
{
/// <summary>
/// Desired degrees-of-freedom mode of each controller.
/// </summary>
public fixed libnative.InputControllerDof dof[2];
}
Error
Fixed size buffer type must be one of the following: bool, byte, short, int, long, char, sbyte, ushort, uint, ulong, float or double
I'm not really sure what the expected result here would be either besides replacing the generated type with the int
equivalent value, but that doesn't seem correct.
/// <summary>
/// Desired configuration of the input system.
/// </summary>
[StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential, CharSet = CharSet.Ansi)]

When attempting to generate an enum using a macro definition the code generated does not compile.

ResultAPIPrefix_Global = RESULT_PREFIX(0),
};
enum {
/*! Defines the prefix for AudioResult codes. */
ResultAPIPrefix_Audio = RESULT_PREFIX(0x9e11)
};
C#

{
/// <summary>
/// Defines the prefix for global Result codes.

I have traveled the code in this repo and I want to add delegate* support.
typedef int (*fnAdd)(int,int);
struct S{
fnAdd pfnAdd;
};
generates
struct S
{
delegate* unmanaged[Cdelc]<int,int,int> pfnAdd;
}
I found that there is already an implementation of delegate pointers here, but it is not for function pointers, but for functions. And it doesn't seem to be used. Any tips on implementing this?
I am wanting to provide my own version of this Converter but the issue here is that CppElement
is internal set
on CSharpElement
which doesn't allow me to provide the same behavior as the default nor will it allow this to work with the mapping rules later.
Is there any specific reason this has to be internal ? Especially given the plugin architecture ?
I don't see any commits since couple of years ago. Is the code in a stable state or is it abandoned?
A void typedef generates to something that can't compile in C# via the default typedef converter.
typedef void ecs_poly_t;
-> public readonly partial struct ecs_poly_t { public readonly void Value; ... }
I'd be happy to open a PR to fix this, but I'm not 100% sure what the correct solution is. Should the typedef just be empty if the typedef's value's type is "void"?

When generating delegate callbacks with multiple unnamed parameters, the code gen will produce names with the same name.
c++
typedef void(*CallbackMethod)(Context *, Result *);
C#
[UnmanagedFunctionPointer(CallingConvention.Cdecl)]
public delegate void CallbackMethod(libnative.Context arg0, libnative.Result arg0);
[UnmanagedFunctionPointer(CallingConvention.Cdecl)]
public delegate void CallbackMethod(libnative.Context arg0, libnative.Result arg1);
Yeah, I know starting a title with the "Beyond" keyword is scary!
This is actually a prospective question; about the possibility, in the far future, to be able to convert C++ code to C# ... not just bindings, but the whole thing.
I don't expect it will be possible to make a full converter that works out of the box, we can only hope to have a converter that requires extensive rewriting at best... and there's two main issues that cannot be translated to c# easily: c++ templates and pointers semantics.
The c++ templating is almost impossible to handle.... and the pointers... I believe, it also was impossible to handle, until recently.
Recently I've been using Span<T>
a lot, and the more I use it, the more I recall when I used to program in c++, and I've began thinking about all the code I ported from c++ to c#, how difficult it was to port due to the pointer semantics, and how easily could have been ported now by using Span<T>
extensively...
So, maybe c++ to c# code conversion is not so far away? ... what do you think?

The function declaration has the following first argument:
function0(git_my_repo* myrepo
At the same time the generated code declares it as
libnative.git_my_repo myrepo
which is incorrect. The structure is passed by pointer and should have ref or out in the c# declaration. It may work on some platforms as is (i.e. Windows) but may be broken on other (i.e. Linux).
