cxxbridge1

Generate c++ code from rust source files

Overview

Usage:

cxxbridge <input>.rs

Emit .cc file for bridge to stdout

cxxbridge <input>.rs --header

Emit .h file for bridge to stdout

cxxbridge --header

Emit "rust/cxx.h" header to stdout

Arguments:

[input]

Input Rust source file containing #[cxx::bridge].

Options

--cfg <name="value" | name[=true] | name=false>

Compilation configuration matching what will be used to build the Rust side of the bridge.

--cxx-impl-annotations <annotation>

Optional annotation for implementations of C++ function wrappers that may be exposed to Rust. You may for example need to provide __declspec(dllexport) or __attribute__((visibility("default"))) if Rust code from one shared object or executable depends on these C++ functions in another.

--header

Emit header with declarations only. Optional if using `-o` with a path ending in `.h`.

--help

Print help information.

-i, --include <include>

Any additional headers to #include. The cxxbridge tool does not parse or even require the given paths to exist; they simply go into the generated C++ code as #include lines.

-o, --output <output>

Path of file to write as output. Output goes to stdout if -o is not specified.

--version

Print version information.
