Usage from other languages

[lvjonok]

Hello! I am trying to access your library from different languages. I read that you provide DLL files, but it does not really suit me.

Could you suggest what are my options with using Clipper2 from C language?

Mainly I am concerned to use Clipper2 with golang and it has options with linking only C libraries. When I try to use clipper.export.h header I only get that cstdlib is not found (just because it is not c compatible library)

Thank you for your effort!

These are new and unofficial, but I've been working with these C bindings for my own efforts of binding Clipper2 from OCaml. Sorry to butt in, the issue just caught my eye!

I also considered trying SWIG, but taking into account size of headers it just didn't work out of the box.

Maybe working and providing SWIG interface will help for everyone. As I know it allows poring on many languages.

The linked C bindings are made explicitly with FFI from GC'd languages in mind (like OCaml) so I imagine they'd work well for Go.
