I have been trying to figure out how to create haxe externs for c++ libraries, and have been trying to get some classes from themispp working, but I'm a bit confused.
I linked a haxelib dev directory to the themis src directory, to make adding it to the @:buildXml easier, that part and @:includes seem to be working ok, but I'm having trouble setting up externs that reference c++ enums and templates, so I'm wondering what is the best way to go about it.
This is the file I'm trying to create externs for: themis/secure_keygen.hpp
Keypair generation interface: themis wiki
enum asym_algs{EC, RSA};
template <asym_algs alg_t_p>
class themispp::secure_key_pair_generator_t {
void gen();
const std::vector<uint8_t>& get_priv();
const std::vector<uint8_t>& get_pub();
};
This is my current progress:
@:buildXml("
<files id='haxe'>
<compilerflag value='-I${haxelib:themis}/src/wrappers/themis/themispp/'/>
<compilerflag value='-I${haxelib:themis}/src/soter/'/>
<compilerflag value='-I${haxelib:themis}/src/themis/'/>
</files>

<compilerflag value='-I${haxelib:themis}/src/soter/'/>

</files>
