binary_generator #

Binary generator is a tool (set of generators) that allows generate a development code for the binary interop and binary types.

Version: 0.0.20

Donate to binary generator for dart

Interrelated (binary) software

• Binary declarations
• Binary generator
• Binary interop
• Binary marshalling
• Binary types

Features

• Generating the binary types (types generator)
• Generating the wrappers for the dynamic loadable libraries (library generator)

Planned features

• Generating the binary classes, wrappers over the binary structures
• Generating the converters of the end-user classes from binary classes and vice versa
• Generating the library loaders for different platform from distributed binary packages

Types generator

The "types generator" generates the dart library with a class inherited from the BinaryTypes with a getters created from typedef C types.

Example:

Declaration (my_types.txt):

typedef char CHAR;
typedef struct info {
  int i;
} INFO;

Generation:

$ dart binary_generator types --library my_package.my_types my_types.txt

Produced result:

// This code was generated by a tool.
// Processing tool available at https://github.com/mezoni/binary_generator

library my_package.my_types;

import "package:binary_types/binary_types.dart";

class MyTypes extends BinaryTypes {
  String _header = '''
typedef char CHAR;
typedef struct info {
  int i;
} INFO;
''';    
      
  /**
   *
   */
  MyTypes({DataModel dataModel, BinaryTypes types, Map<String, String> environment}) : super(dataModel: dataModel, types: types) {
    var helper = new BinaryTypeHelper(this);
    helper.declare(_header, environment: environment);  
  }
  
  /**
   * typedef char CHAR
   */
  Int8Type get CHAR => this["CHAR"];
  
  /**
   * typedef struct info INFO
   */
  StructType get INFO => this["INFO"];
  
}
