Is there any Irrlicht C Wrapper?

Post by stefany »

is there any existing plain C wrapper for Irrlicht? Anyone has coded that for bindings to other languages?

Thanks!

Google: extern "C"
You can use irrlicht as long as you create functions that link it to your plain C files.
And yes, there are other bindings. Check the Project Announcements section of these forums. I believe there you will find the Python and Ruby bindings.

Well, you don't get around using the classes with extern C. There are binding to other languages, but those are also OO languages. I haven't heard about a c wrapper yet.

Good luck.

Hm, makes me wonder if we should maybe add an own sub-forum for language wrappers. Or even general interface wrappers (for stuff like physics engine wrappers, sound wrappers etc). Jirr seems dead anyway and could be replaced.
