I am currently thinking about rewriting this from scratch but I will try to look into this error as soon as possible - many thanks for taking the time to report it.

Hello I would like to get some practical experience wrapping a C++ library. I wonder if you could provide me with a step-by-step guide of how you wrapped ArrayFire so I could you use it as a guide. This would be very helpful indeed. I am looking forward to hearing from you. Many thanks in advance. Gennadiy

Hi Gennadiy,

The general approach was quite easy. I used a hand written python preprocessing to get to a single, simplified header file.
In the next step I fed this to c2nim, fixed the problems and experimented with the result.
Finally I hand crafted the the Matrix type and some convenience tools to have some simplification compared to the "pure" wrapper.

But this was some years ago and nowadays I would probably start with cpp2nim or something similar..

I haven't used nim a lot lately but I always felt that if interfacing complex cpp libraries would be more seamless this could be a big selling point but I guess this is technically very hard.

I hope this helps

Thanks, it does help. I will have a look at cpp2nim although I have to say I am seriously considering moving back to C++. Yes, I agree with you. If Nim could have seamless interop with C++, that would enhance its visibility. It is probably technically hard as you said but D and Julia manage it quite well so I guess it also requires some willingness either on the part of the Nim developers or the users.

I can only test on my arch linux and can't reproduce this error at the moment, please open a new issue if this still is a problem - I will try to setup a windows test environment soon.
