cffi
Use the #[cffi::marshal(...)] proc macro to make unsafe C functions into much safer functions,
both for exporting interfaces and consuming functions from C libraries.
Usage
See the documentation for the various marshallers available.
Where is this used?
- pahkat - a multi-platform package management framework
- divvunspell - a multi-platform highly efficient memory-mapping spell checking library
Background and philosophy
We enforce the usage of stdint.h types on the C side to simplify the implementation on the Rust side.
