I use cl-autowrap[1], which uses c2ffi[2] to create "definitions from C, C++, and Objective C headers for use with foreign function call interfaces".

it uses CFFI-SYS, and I have only tested it out using C++ libs, but it should work for most things most of the time. I am not sure if it is the best way, but, I did it my way[3].

Cheers,

Drew Crampsie

Hi

I just spent a bit of time looking for this, i.e., how to get a CFFI for a C++ library, but at this point I am not so sure about the best way to go about this.

What is the wisdom of the list on the subject?

Thanks

Marco
