What is it?

Ender-Sharp lets you create automatic bindings for C# for any library described with Ender.

Dependencies

• Ender
• Mono

Building and Installation

./configure
make
make install

How it works?

First you need to have a XML Ender file for your library. Once you have one, the ender2sharp binary will create a .NET source file and a pkg-config .pc file with the bindings of your lib.

./ender2sharp.exe -o TARGET_DIR LIB_NAME

The files generated will be at the TARGET_DIR

ls TARGET_DIR
LIB_NAME-sharp.cs
LIB_NAME-sharp.pc

How is the generated code?
