And all four have listed "Plain old ordinary C" as something they want supported. Classic. Now it's in front of every other option. Supporting C is step one to supporting Java too. So that's cool. And also Python. And Swift. And Rust. And basically everything. So I've gone and done a thing to my branch of Binderoo - I now generate C function wrappers alongside the C++ function wrappers. Environments that can support C++ calling conventions will absolutely want to stick to them, especially on x64 as the default calling conventions use registers extensively rather than pushing everything to the stack. And environments that don't support those conventions can stick to the C function pointer and be merry. I'll need to clean up my minimal C API and work on generating code for those languages before I can say "They're supported!" but at the very least the groundwork is there.

I assumed plain old ordinary C support would have been the number one choice for additional language support. But it's only number three, with Python right above it and Java sitting in the number one slot. Whether that's plain old Java on desktops or things like JNI to allow usage on Android, I don't know. I didn't make that distinction. But there it is. Also. 7/13 respondents think that koalas are just rubbish squirrels. This isn't a viewpoint that Binderoo can solve, but it's good to know where the line is drawn.

Attending your session on DConf was great and a lot of fun. I do not know how it fits into your scenario but some months ago I created Delta [1] which is a bridge between D and Delphi. In case you do s.th. for Delphi, maybe Delta can leverage from or the other way around, you got some ideas how Binderoo can be enhanced by looking at Delta. The current plan for Delta is to create a Delphi Pascal parser which generates a Json for a given Delphi unit (the public interface). A second program will generate out of the Json D modules containing wrapper classes. The files you found on github are all hand written. https://github.com/andre2007/delta-core-10-2-1 Kind regards Andre
