Title: SFML bindings for a new programming language.
Post by: LinkOS on February 24, 2011, 07:28:48 pm

Hi,
 I'm making a new programming language, I'm not it's author, but I got it on sourceforge, it's development stopped since 2009, I guess, and I'm optimizing it. The language is created in pure C, and I would like to make SFML bindings, does any one have an Idea about how to it ?
Thank you  very much.

How are we supposed to help you, since we know nothing about the target language? ;)

Usually, languages all know how to load C DLLs and import functions from them. Your language should have a similar feature, at least.

Then you can interface with the CSFML binding, and... that's it :D

You can directly use the compiled CSFML binaries.
