Hi,
I checked the libspreadsheet library home page link
"http://wow.curseforge.com/addons/libspreadsheet/pages/lib-spreadsheet-api/";
and the APIs seem to be C++/Lua/Object-Oriented-like.
For example:
local mySheet = myBook:Add("My first sheet");
mySheet = myBook:Add("My second sheet");
mySheet = myBook:Select("My first sheet"); -- Get the first sheet again
From what I observe, the above example's syntax seems to reflect purely
Object/Class-centric syntax, and could not be directly invoked from a pure C
program, could it?
Are there bingings for C too, then?
Or am I looking at the wrong libspreadsheet library that Gnumeric uses?
Note:
Also, on my Ubuntu 12.04 system when I tried to install the "libspreadsheet"
source, these below results came up:
root@:192.168.41.68:~#apt-get source libspreadsheet-
<TAB>
libspreadsheet-parseexcel-perl libspreadsheet-ruby1.9.1
libspreadsheet-parseexcel-simple-perl libspreadsheet-ruby-doc
libspreadsheet-read-perl libspreadsheet-writeexcel-perl
libspreadsheet-ruby libspreadsheet-xlsx-perl
libspreadsheet-ruby1.8
None of these seem to provide any APIs for C.
Could you please point me to the C interface of the libspreadsheet library, or
how I could obtain it in any way?
Sorry for sticking to this question for too long, but the
Gnumeric/Libspreadsheet APIs seem too programmatically tempting to let go off
:).
Thanks & Regards,
Catapult.

libspeadsheet is a C library, not C++.
