JoltC

C wrapper for Jolt Physics 5.1.0.

Currently a work in progress. Bindings contain functions that we've needed as part of our game or the Rust bindings we're working on in jolt-rust.

Goals

  1. Sound C wrapper around current version of Jolt Physics
  2. Headers suitable for usage in automatic binding generation tools (i.e. Rust bindgen, LuaJIT FFI)

Building

Use CMake:

# Configure the build
cmake -B build

# Optionally, you can enable double precision, or make ObjectLayer use 32 bits
# We aim to support most of the configuration of Jolt's C++ API.
cmake -B build -DDOUBLE_PRECISION=ON -DOBJECT_LAYER_BITS=32

# Build
cmake --build build

Hello, world!

A port of Jolt's "HelloWorld" example is provided in HelloWorld/main.cpp.

Other C Wrappers

Other C wrappers for Jolt Physics include:

The goal of this project is to be the first C wrapper around Jolt Physics that is not part of a larger binding project and to eliminate sources of undefined behavior. It's intended to be useful for any other language-specific bindings and to reduce the need to duplicate work.
