In the two previous posts (Part 1 and Part 2), we looked at how to build bindings between C++ and Rust from scratch. However, while building a binding generator from scratch is fun, it’s not necessarily an efficient way to integrate Rust into your C++ project. Let’s look at some existing technologies for mixing C++ […]

Mixing C++ and Rust for Fun and Profit: Part 2 Of structs and strings
In the beginning, there was C. That sentence actually could serve as the introduction to a multitude of blog posts, all of which would come to the conclusion “legacy programming conventions are terrible, but realistically we can’t throw everything out and start over from scratch”. However, today we will merely be looking at two ways […]
Mixing C++ and Rust for Fun and Profit: Part 1 Or why switching to Rust is such a large undertaking
For quite some time, I have been bothered by this thought: Individual programming languages (C++, Rust, Go, etc.) are traditionally viewed as walled gardens. If your main() function is written in C++, you had better find yourself C++ libraries like Qt to build the rest of your codebase with. Do you want to use Flutter […]
