NativeExposer

Do not write glue code yourself!

Preserving all API data, NativeExposer generates glue codes automatically to host C# from C++, without NativeAOT or IPC:

  • C#
class Program
{
    [Export]
    public Program() {}

    [Export]
    public void Hello() {
        Console.WriteLine("Hello, World");
    }
}
  • C++
clr::assert(clr::init("<dotnet-root>", "<runtimeconfig.json>"));
clr::assert(clr::load("<your-dll>"));

Program program;
program.Hello();

clr::close();

Getting Started

  1. Install NativeExposer.Build to system
dotnet tool install -g NativeExposer.Build

It installs native-exposer build tool to your system.

  1. Add NativeExposer to csproj as dependency
<PackageReference Include="NativeExposer" Version="1.0.0"/>
  1. Use custom builder to generate stubs
native-exposer <csproj> <output-path>

It generates CMakeLists.txt, lib.cxx and lib.h. You can use this CMakeLists.txt from your CMake project as add_subdirectory or etc...

  1. Enjoy it!
