dart_cpp_bridge 1.3.0

Dart ↔ C++20 bridge (FRB-like). Dart FFI session layer; Native Assets build hooks for Android, iOS, Linux, macOS, and Windows.

dart_cpp_bridge

Dart/Flutter ↔ C++20 binding generator, inspired by flutter_rust_bridge.

Write normal C++ code and call it from Dart/Flutter, with sync, async, stream, and Dart-closure reverse calls.

What's this?

• Write plain C++20 functions and classes — no hand-written FFI boilerplate
• Codegen generates Dart API + C++ wire dispatch from annotated headers
• Built-in runtime based on Asio + async-simple coroutines
• Supports Android, iOS, Windows, Linux, and macOS

Quickstart

Show me the code

C++

#include <dart_cpp_bridge/annotate.h>

BRIDGE_SYNC int32_t add(int32_t a, int32_t b) { return a + b; }

BRIDGE_ASYNC
async_simple::coro::Lazy<std::string> greet(std::string name) {
  co_return "Hello, " + name;
}

Dart

import 'package:my_app/src/native_gen/api/api_fn.dart';

void main() async {
  await DcbLib.init();

  print(add(a: 1, b: 2));            // 3
  print(await greet(name: 'World')); // Hello, World
}
