Camlkit bindings generator

Generate Camlkit bindings for Objective-C classes and C globals of Cocoa frameworks.

Example usage

• List libraries registered with the Objective-C runtime:

dune exec ckgen -- inspect --libs

• Generate bindings for C globals:

mkdir -p data/CoreGraphics
dune exec ckgen -- globals CoreGraphics \
  --open-modules=CoreFoundation \
  < /System/Library/Frameworks/CoreGraphics.framework/Resources/BridgeSupport/CoreGraphics.bridgesupport \
  > data/CoreGraphics/CoreGraphics_globals.ml

• Generate bindings for Objective-C classes:

mkdir -p data/Foundation
cd data/Foundation && dune exec ckgen -- classes Foundation \
  --all-in /System/Library/Frameworks/Foundation.framework/Versions/C/Foundation \
  --open-modules=CoreFoundation,CoreAnimation
