libc

The C standard library wrapper (currently only header files) for the "binary interop" and "binary types".

Version: 0.0.4

Warning

The libc library works directly with the binary data of the operating system!

Purpose

Intended to simplify the use of the following software:

• Binary interop
• Binary types

Currently contains mostly empty headers. Types will be added as needed.
Function prototypes will be added in the near future.
Macro definitions possibly will be added in the future.

Header files

• assert.h
• complex.h
• ctype.h
• errno.h
• fenv.h
• float.h
• inttypes.h
• iso646.h
• limits.h
• locale.h
• math.h
• setjmp.h
• signal.h
• stdarg.h
• stdbool.h
• stddef.h
• stdint.h
• stdio.h
• stdlib.h
• string.h
• tgmath.h
• time.h
• wchar.h
• wctype.h

Examples:

import "package:libc/headers.dart";
import "package:libc/libc_library.dart";
import "package:binary_interop/binary_interop.dart";

void main() {
  var types = new BinaryTypes();
  var helper = new BinaryTypeHelper(types);
  helper.addHeaders(LIBC_HEADERS);
  var libc = loadLibC(types);
  libc.printf("Hello, library '%s'!\n", ["libc"]);
}

import "package:binary_interop/binary_interop.dart";
import "package:libc/headers.dart";

void main() {
  var header = HEADERS.keys.first;
  var types = new BinaryTypes();
  var helper = new BinaryTypeHelper(types);
  helper.addHeaders(LIBC_HEADERS);
  helper.addHeaders(HEADERS);
  // "libc/example/header.h"
  helper.declare(header);
  var prototypes = helper.prototypes;
  for (var name in prototypes.keys) {
    var prototype = prototypes[name];
    if (prototype.filename == header) {
      print(prototype.type.name);
    }
  }
}

const Map<String, String> HEADERS = const <String, String>{"libc/example/header.h": _HEADER_H};

const String _HEADER_H = """
#include <stdio.h>

FILE * myfunc(const char * name);
""";

Output:

FILE * myfunc(char *)
