  • Tcl C++ library access

    From Mark Summerfield@21:1/5 to All on Sun Jun 16 12:04:59 2024
    I've started using Tcl/Tk 9.0b2 on Linux 64-bit.

    I'd quite like to access the poppler library. This provides APIs for C++ https://poppler.freedesktop.org/api/cpp/

    Is there any nice (easy:-) way to access C++ bindings from Tcl?

    I use SWIG to generate a wrapper module. I don't know if SWIG supports Tcl/Tk 9.0 or not -- I have only used it with Tcl 8.x.

    SWIG supports Tcl 9 since version 4.2.1, see my pull request https://github.com/swig/swig/pull/2752

    Thanks for your replies. I can now see SWIG has Tcl 9 support. https:// www.swig.org/
