unexpected string literal "C"

[cznic]

This seems like a C++ only header file to me. The extern "C" { should be, for C compatibility, wrapped in

#ifdef __cplusplus
extern "C" {
#endif

See also: Combining C++ and C - how does #ifdef __cplusplus work?

Hi,

H file same as above.

Working on this again. Error was:

unexpected identifier set_work_dir, expected one of ['(', ')', ',', ':', etc...

Changing

void DEX_API set_work_dir( const char *pName);

to (removing DEX_API)

void set_work_dir(const char *pName);

allows it to compile without error, but it's still an empty dexapi.go file.

yml is

GENERATOR: 
  PackageName: dexapi
  PackageDescription: "Package dexapi provides Go bindings for Dex Tools 2.23 for IWR3 decode to DF3"
  PackageLicense: "THE AUTOGENERATED LICENSE. ALL THE RIGHTS ARE RESERVED BY ROBOTS."
  Includes: ["DexApi.h"]
    
PARSER: 
  SourcesPaths: ["DexApi.h"]

  Rules: 
    global:
      - {action: accept, from: "^set_work_dir$"}
      - {action: accept, from: "^make_strips$"}
      - {action: accept, from: "^list_forward$"}
      - {action: accept, from: "^list_phy_toc$"}

result dexapi.go is:

package dexapi

/*
#include "DexApi.h"
#include <stdlib.h>
#include "cgo_helpers.h"
*/
import "C"

That worked. Now I have:

processing dexapi.yml ⠋[ERR] DexApi.h:32:14: unexpected identifier set_work_dir

Moved #ifdef __cplusplus to top of file and endif to bottom. Compiled.

.. basically an empty file. oops

@5k3105 Have you used this?

[xlab]

@5k3105 Also, everything is ignored by default, you should include functions and other types you want to use explicitly. Remember nidaqmx.yml?

  Rules: 
    global:   
      - {action: accept, from: "^DAQmx"}
      - {action: replace, from: "^DAQmx"}
      - {transform: export}
    post-global: 
      - {action: replace, from: _$}
      - {load: snakecase}

In this case you can't use prefixes, there is no prefixes, so specify exact function names and const definitions. E.g.

- {action: accept, from: "^make_strips$"}
- {action: accept, from: "^ list_forward$"}
- {action: accept, from: "^ list_phy_toc$"}
...

Sorry and thanks for the help.
