CppSharp is a collection of libraries for working with C++ code from .NET.

It has multiple use cases, from parsing C++ code to automatically generating .NET bindings for wrapping C/C++ native code allowing interoperability with managed languages like C#.

This can be used to consume an existing native library in your managed code or add scripting support to a native codebase.

Mirrors the Clang's C++ AST and type system classes in C# APIs.

Check out Clang's AST introduction docs for more details about its architecture.

• C++ declarations
• C++ types
• Class object layout
• Declaration visitors
• Type visitors

Parser

Provides APIs for parsing C++ source code.

• Parsing of C++ source code
• Parsing of libraries archives symbols
• Parsing of shared libraries symbols
• Based on the very accurate Clang C++ parser.
