GIWS

Description

GIWS is basically the opposite of SWIG.

When SWIG generates wrappers to call C/C++ functions/methods from other languages, GIWS creates wrapper for those who wants to call Java methods from C/C++.

GIWS is widely used in Scilab (from version 5.0) to drive the rendering and the GUI.

Documentation

The best way to understand how to use GIWS is to read the examples

Code using C++ generated files examples/*/main.cpp

XML declaration files: examples//.xml

Usage

./giws -h to see the help

Options :

  • -o / --output-dir=

    Where files should be generated

  • -f / --description-file= Specify the declaration file to use

  • -p / --per-package Creates a file per package instead of a file per object

  • -e / --throws-exception-on-error Throws a C++ exception instead of an exit(EXIT_FAILURE)

  • --header-extension-file : Specify the extension of the header file generated [Default : .hxx]

  • --body-extension-file : Specify the extension of the body file generated [Default : .cpp]

  • -v / --version : Displays the version and other information

  • -h / --help : Displays the help

Dependencies

Obviously, as GIWS has been written in Python, it needs the Python interpreter to work. And that's it !
