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

ANNOUNCEMENT

We'll be participating in Google Summer of Code 2015 as part of the Mono organization. If you're interested in contributing to the project as part of the program then get in touch!

Generator

Generates .NET bindings that wrap C/C++ code allowing interoperability with managed languages. This is useful if you want to consume an existing native library in your managed code or add scripting support to a native codebase.

• Multiple backends: C++/CLI and C# P/Invoke
• Multiple ABIs: Itanium, MS, ARM, iOS and iOS64
• Multiple platforms: Windows, OS X and Linux
• Virtual table overriding support
• Multiple inheritance support
• Easily extensible semantics via user passes
• Work-in-progress support for STL (C++/CLI only)
• Strongly-typed customization APIs and type maps

AST

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

Check out Clang's AST introduction docs if you're not familiar with the 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.
