Receiving alot of errors when parsing

[jpippy]

When trying to generate both CLI and C# wrappers I receive many errors for a couple of projects. So I am trying to figure out if I am doing something wrong here. The errors I seem to be receiving are:

Unhandled typdef errors
Duplicate names
Unknown typename

I know duplicate names is just a warning, but when I look at some of the files generated a large portion of it is generic names from the renaming. For the most part it generates the proper files, except it seems like it is not generating any files for the headers that are receiving the Unknown typename errors. Which is a large portion of one of the libraries. Is there any way I can minimize these errors, possible some extra steps that I can take. so I can have functional wrappers?

I am not using any SetupPasses, preprocess, or postprocess configuration ATM.

Some of those errors might be harmless but it's hard to say without more information. Can you publish either the libraries you're trying to bind or CppSharp's output?

[jpippy]

See, the main libs is recieving parse errors and is skipping the ones it makes simple parse errors with. The errors wouldnt be anything serious. I have CppSharp set to ignoreparse errors and warnings, and it doesnt seem to help at all.

Please paste the log in a Gist and link it here so I can take a look at the errors.

Is there a specific way to output a log to a file from the library? Or do I need to capture the output on my end. I wont be able to copy right from the command prompt as it cuts off alot of the output.

Also I wanted to mention, I tried compiling the csharp bindings it created, and it had alot of errors. It seems like cppsharp messed up on the syntax quite a bit. Unknown symbols, I think it named some internal functions "Internal".. From the library that generated the smoothest, I have 111 build errors when trying to build the library. Is there any way you could take a look at the project to see it first hand?

When creating the library projects with the binding classes(I have done both the csharp and C++/CLI), I am getting an insane amount of syntax errors when trying to build. I dont think it would ever be possible to build any of them without alot of manual fixing, is this normal?

Also do you think you could post the binaries from the latest CppSharp development build? I would like to try out the new CodeDom library auto build feature. I am having an issue with the vc++ optimization compiler crashing when trying to build LLVM/Clang from source, it is only from a certain lib and happens even if I build in debug, which it doesnt even use optimizations then. So unfortunately I cannot build that version from source to try it out.

Thanks again Tritao. I really want to get this all figured out. It is starting to drive me nuts, but I really want to build the bindings using CppSharp.

It might be normal depending on what C/C++ features they use. By syntax errors, do you mean when parsing the directfb libraries, or compiling the generated code?

Sure, I'll release a new build later today so you can try it.

About building Clang from source, as long as you use VS2012 with the latest updates, everything should work fine. What version are you using?

I'm sorry I couldn't take a look myself yet, but I've been a bit busy lately.

[jpippy]

I was building clang with 2010. I will update 2012 and try to build it again.

What I meant by syntax errors is that when compiling the generated code in VS 2010 I am receiving alot of errors. I do receive parse errors from cppsharp aswell but I am just ignoring those .

As for clang I am using Revision 194393, is CppSharp reliant on this revision or should I try another?

That would be great if you posted a new build today. Looking forward to it :). No problems about taking a look at the lib, I know how it is.

Had some problems with the build server which I've been trying to fix, I'll up a build once I manage to fix it. Once it's up, you can get the latest build from builds.tritao.eu.

[jpippy]

Ahh I knew I wasnt crazy. I remember downloading a build from the server before, but since it was down the last few days. I was thinking maybe there was no public access. Will keep checking. Thanks.

[tritao]

You should be able to access it. I released a new build.
