# XenoAtom.Interop 🚀

This **XenoAtom.Interop** project provides a set of C# libraries to interop with C/C++ libraries.

## ✨ Features

- **API generated automatically** from C/C++ headers providing a near **100% API coverage**.
- **Low-level interop** with C/C++ libraries
- The C/C++ API exposed is raw and will use pointers...etc.
- Pure [Function Pointers](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/csharp/language-reference/proposals/csharp-9.0/function-pointers) generated for callbacks, no managed delegates.
- Similarly for `ReadOnlySpan` whenever possible.
- **Modern interop** using [`[LibraryImport]`](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/standard/native-interop/pinvoke-source-generation) with P/Invoke source generation.
- Some functions taking or returning strings try to offer a more user-friendly API by using `string` (but the raw function is still accessible!)
- Fast UTF16 to UTF8 string marshalling with zero allocations (for small strings).
- [`DllImportResolver`](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.runtime.interopservices.nativelibrary.setdllimportresolver) support for each library to customize loading the native library.
- No native binaries are provided, **only the P/Invoke bindings**.
- But some 3rd party NuGet packages might provide compatible native libraries. See the list of available compatible packages in each library below.
- **Simple API XML documentation** is provided for each library whenever possible (extracted from the C/C++ headers).
- **NativeAOT** Compatible.
- Supports `net8.0`+

## 📦 Libraries

The C/C++ header files from the [Alpine Linux](https://www.alpinelinux.org/) `v3.20` were used to generated automatically the .NET P/Invoke bindings.

The following libraries are available:

- `all`: The library is available for all supported architectures.
- For `musl` library, it will work if `musl` is installed on the system. Typically on Alpine Linux you don't need to install anything.
So the targets `linux-musl-x64` and `linux-musl-arm64` are supported by default.
