Fungw is a tiny, portable library written in C (C89) that manages
|
|
dynamic function calls across different programming languages. For
|
|
this, fungw provides:
|
|
|
|
- a simplistic scalar data type abstraction, supporting the most common types
|
|
- semi-automatic conversion between data types
|
|
- contexts that can host objects; objects can host named functions
|
|
- a set of optional language bindings to the most popular scripting languages
|
|
|
|
The main use of fungw is to provide the host application a framework
|
|
where dynamic parts of the code (e.g. plugins) can register their calls,
|
|
allowing app-plugin, plugin-app, and plugin-plugin calls.
|
|
|
|
The second main use is doing all this in a language-agnostic way: any
|
|
part of the code can be implemented in any of the numerous supported
|
|
scripting languages (such as awk or lua). The caller of a function
|
|
doesn't need to know what language the function is implemented in.
|
|
|
|
The main property of fungw is simplicity. The only API between objects
|
|
is the plain old function call mechanism.
