Go / C++ bindings example

Go / C++ bindings example

This is an example of Go code calling to a C++ library with a C wrapper.

Build

go build  # this only ensures it compiles

Test

go test  # actually runs tests
// num.cpp
#include "nummer.hpp"
#include "num.h"
Num NumInit() {
cxxNum * ret = new cxxNum(1);
return (void*)ret;
}
void NumFree(Num n) {
cxxNum * num = (cxxNum*)n;
delete num;
}
void NumIncrement(Num n) {
cxxNum * num = (cxxNum*)n;
num->Increment();
}
int NumGetValue(Num n) {
cxxNum * num = (cxxNum*)n;
return num->GetValue();
}
