What does parse.c have to do with the user of Calypso?
How does the user use Calypso? Where is Calypso? How do I run Calypso?
A user of Calypso will be baffled when encountering user documentation of
Calypso that explains it in terms of dmd internal source code.
Is the new README any better?
No. It doesn't answer any of my questions.
Once I succeed making the nature of Calypso
intelligible does the showcase example seem self-explaining enough to make the
usage straightforward?
I'm obviously terrible at communicating. Let me try again. Assume that I wrote
Calypso, and I was explaining it to you:
-----------------------------------------
Given the C++ header file foo.h:
void bar(unsigned *);
and the C++ source file foo.cpp:
void bar(unsigned *p) { }
I want to call bar() from my D code in test.d:
void main() {
uint x;
bar(&x);
}
Here's how to do it with Calypso:
calypso foo.h
which will generate the file foo.d. add an import to test.d:
import foo;
void main() {
uint x;
bar(&x);
}
To compile and link:
clang++ foo.cpp -c
dmd test foo.o
Which generates the program 'test' which can be run.
