Hiya! Chicken got a new FFI interface (informally called the "easy" FFI). It parses a subset of C and generates procedure and variable bindings from declarations, like this: #>! #include <math.h> #define my_pi 3.14 int var = 99; extern double sin(double); <# (print (sin my_pi)) (print (var)) (var 123) (print (var)) ; now 123 The parser does basic macro substitution, handles simple macros, enums, typedefs, variable declarations and function prototypes. Most preprocessor commands are implemented.
Pretty cool.Why did you decide to treat C variables (var in the above) as scheme functions instead of scheme variables?
