libpd-sys's Issues

Improve README.md

I'd like to have a table about which platforms this crate supports.

Which platforms it will support in the future.

And which platforms it does not intend to support.

Move back to libpd upstream

Currently I'm using my own fork of libpd related to these,

libpd/libpd#350

and

libpd/libpd#351.

If the PR merges then I will move back to upstream.

Support for Android and IOS

Check if it runs in Android or IOS platforms.
Change build.rs accordingly to support those.

Test gnu toolchain on windows

I have only tested MSVC based toolchains on windows.

It would be nice if we could test gnu based toolchains also and if necessary improve build.rs accordingly.

Option to bundle essential externals.

Make a list of externals which modern pd users use commonly and bundle them with the library.

Also we can make this a cargo feature.

This is a complicated design choice since externals need to be statically linked with libpd.

• Would it be better to include them as submodules?
• Would it better to vendor pre-built ones and update them time to time.
• Should we give examples and advise people to fork libpd-sys to include externals?

Maybe there can be more ideas..
