Hello
I wrote static bindings to a C library. I want to also offer a
version(Dynamic) of the bindings.
I follow and use derelict-util to get the address of function
pointers.
In the library I bind, there is also global variables. here's
one example in the static bindings:
extern __gshared wl_interface wl_display_interface;
(wl_interface is a struct, not a pointer alias)
How would one make dynamic binding of this?
Is it possible to retrieve the address of the symbol and use
std.conv.emplace?
You have to declare it as a pointer, then retrieve the pointer in
the same way you do the function pointers, via the system loader
(GetProcAddress/dlsym).
