YAWG

##Yet Another Wrapper Generator

It can generate language binding wrappers for variety of languages for a C/C++ program.

Motivation

The aim is to create an intelligent wrapper generator tool that does not need interface files as required by other wrapper generators like SWIG and SIP.

Goal

  • It should be possible to create wrapper just by parsing third-party headers.
  • Generated wrapper must be readable by human.
  • Generated wrapper should be as close to what a human would produce.
  • There should be variety of wrapper generator components of yawg, e.g. python, JavaScript, Ruby, PHP, etc.
  • There should also be a wrapper generator for C++ binding so that a C++ program can be extended by another C++ program without making it mandatory to build the extension program using same compiler.

Non-goals

  • Should be able to generate wrapper from reasonably good C/C++ headers. It is not the aim for handling every possible trick that a C/C++ program can use.
