Bindinator

The bindinator installs a tool called bindinate, which can be called with the name of a gir file to generate a binding project.

Example:

bindinate --gir=WebKit-3.0

If the package name in the gir file does not match the system package (i.e., the .pc file), it can be supplied to bindinate.

Example:

bindinate --gir=GnomeKeyring-1.0 --package=gnome-keyring-1

Dependencies

You'll need a fairly recent gtk-sharp from https://github.com/mono/gtk-sharp.

Extra cs code

If you want to extend/add code, you can add extra source files to the sources list in Makefile.am

Extra package checks

The bindinate tool creates a directory of the same name as the supplied gir file name and produces the needed files for compiling a binding. Customization of the gapi output can be done via the usual metadata file.

If the build requires checking for extra packages and getting assembly references, call bindinate with --dependency or -d options. E.g.:

bindinate --gir=Pango-1.0 -d=GLIB_SHARP,glib-sharp-3.0 -d=MONO_CAIRO,mono-cairo

This will create an m4 file for each dependency you have. E.g. for MONO_CAIRO, you'll get a file m4/MONO_CAIRO.m4 containing:

AC_DEFUN([CHECK_MONO_CAIRO],
[
	PKG_CHECK_MODULES(MONO_CAIRO, mono-cairo)
	AC_SUBST(MONO_CAIRO_CFLAGS)
	AC_SUBST(MONO_CAIRO_LIBS)
])

A CHECK_MONO_CAIRO call will be added to configure.ac automatically. $(MONO_CAIRO_CFLAGS) will be added to the code generation command and $(MONO_CAIRO_LIBS) will be added to the assembly build command.
