Requirements

• VSCode Extension: ms-vscode.cpptools
• Clang (for bindgen, see here)

Content

The following projects are included in this repository:

• Manual FFI
• Automatic FFI using bindgen
• Bidirectional FFI using cxx
• Bidirectional FFI using autocxx
• IPC using Sockets

The skeleton is designed like this:

• c-ffi: First implement manual FFI for the db C++ library and then use bindgen to automate it. Both raw and safe bindings should be written.
• cpp-ffi: Generate bindings using cxx.
• autocpp-ffi: Generate bindings using autocxx.
• ipc: Communicate between languages by using sockets.
