Hi everybody,

I want to support the comedi hardware lib to access I/O hardware from my project OpenMSR.
( http://www.comedi.org )
I googled for anything regards that but had no success. So I decided to write a unit which interfaces to the c library.

But I have really no idea how to translate the c headerfile with its structures to freepascal.
Is there anybody out who can help me to translate the header file into a unit ?

Is somebody else working on that ?

Thanks for your help

Hartmut

Hi,

But I have really no idea how to translate the c headerfile with its structures to freepascal. Is there anybody out who can help me to translate the header file into a unit ?

Can you pass over the .h file? Maybe I can help.

Please, check the rules of the ML, as I can't tell you for sure you are allowed to attach files. Although a .h file is small...

Cheers, A.

Hello,

I don't know if anyone is already working on comedi, but I managed to successfully create many bindings after reading this: ftp://ftp.freepascal.org/pub/fpc/docs-pdf/CinFreePascal.pdf

A good starting point for using translation tools is this: http://wiki.freepascal.org/Creating_bindings_for_C_libraries

I've looked into the comedi headers using their SVN browser, and they seemed pretty short and straightforward, so translation should go smoothly.

Cheers!
Roland
