NAME¶

chibi-ffi - generate C from Scheme stub files

SYNOPSIS¶

DESCRIPTION¶

chibi-ffi reads in the C function FFI definitions from an input file and outputs appropriate C wrappers into a file with the same base name and the ".c" extension (unless specified otherwise). You can then compile that C file into a shared library:

chibi-ffi file.stub
cc -fPIC -shared file.c -lchibi-scheme
    

If the -c option is specified then chibi-ffi attempts compiling the generated C code for you in one step. In this case, additional flags for the C compiler may be given with the -f option.

The FFI syntax is described in the manual (/usr/share/doc/chibi-scheme/chibi.html, "C FFI" section).
