This one caught my attention as well. I didn't see any contact information for the participants (I didn't look too hard, I admit), but I was wondering if they had considered basing their work off of Qt Smoke. The smoke project (http://techbase.kde.org/Development/Languages/Smoke) is used by a few other Qt bindings projects and provides some common infrastructure and already went through the trouble of parsing all of the headers in a qt-friendly way. I think smoke would have the advantage of sharing the burden with other language bindings (Ruby, C#, and perl, at least).
Perhaps an argument could be made that requiring smoke might be painful, but I imagine it could be tossed into a cabal package fairly easily. I started playing with generating Qt bindings for Haskell with smoke if the GSoC project might find it useful: https://github.com/travitch/humidor On Wed, May 29, 2013 at 11:51:57AM -0400, Edward Kmett wrote: > There should be a link from the google-melange website, but one slight > shift in focus is on either getting SWIG bindings or possibly even using > Ian-Woo Kim's C++FFI tools.
