A lot of people like the wrappers as being prettier to use
since you can turn C functions into classes and such. gtkd is
an example of that.
Thanks for your fast answers :)
Hm, I thing I am missing some fundamentals...
I read a bit about creating libraries in C++, and I found out,
this is not possible, because there is no definition of the API.
So you need some C "factory methods" to load C++ classes.
So is it possible now by D to load a class directly, or what do
you mean by "turn C functions into classes"?
Also, I used the Qt library a lot with C++. But although it is a
library, I have access to all the classes, like " QWidget w = new
QWidget();". There is no factory method used. (This confuses me
now a bit...)
If its too much to explain within some sentences, maybe you know
something where I could read more about it? I did not find
anything myself. But I really want to understand what's going on.
Of course, it is simple, just bring over the necessary struct,
constant, and function prototypes and it just works.
I have to try it :D
