Embeddinator-4000 is a tool to turn existing .NET libraries into
libraries that can be consumed by other languages.
It is a tool that takes a .NET assembly and generates the necessary
glue to surface the .NET API as a native API. The goal is to surface
.NET libraries to all ecosystems where Mono/Xamarin run, and for each
platform we provide an interface that is native to that platform as well
as the tools needed to turn a .NET library into something that can be
consumed on that platform.
This is a work in progress, the initial goals for this project are to
surface .NET to C, C++, Objective-C (across the various Apple platforms)
and Java (Android and regular Java).
The project is still under heavy development. Usage under mission-critical
production scenarios is not advised. Please report any bugs or suggestions
so we can improve the tool.
## Building
Clone this repository and initialize/update submodules as well as solution depends on them.
Open the solution in `build/MonoEmbeddinator4000.sln` with Visual Studio or Xamarin Studio and press F7.
## Usage
To generate bindings for a managed library you invoke the `MonoEmbeddinator4000.exe` command line tool.
If you do not pass any arguments, you will get a list of the tool options:
```
MonoEmbeddinator4000.exe [options]+ ManagedAssembly.dll
Generates target language bindings for interop with managed code.
--gen=VALUE target language: c, c++, obj-c (defaults to c)
--platform=VALUE target platform: android, windows, macos, ios, watchos, tvos
-o, --out=VALUE output directory
-c, --compile compiles the generated output
--dll, --shared compiles as a shared library / DLL
--vs=VALUE Visual Studio version for compilation: 2012, 2013, 2015, Latest (defaults to Latest)
-v, --verbose generates diagnostic verbose output
-h, --help show this message and exit
```
To generate C bindings for a `Xamarin.Foo.dll` assembly you would call
the tool like:
`MonoEmbeddinator4000.exe -gen=c -out=foo Xamarin.Foo.dll`
