The plain C API located in the include/psyc directory along with the file
psyc.h is primarily intended to be used for binding with other languages
and frameworks.
2011-06-12 10:40:08 +00:00
The LPC binding for psyced is distributed with psyclpc since it is spread
over several files (LPC has no simple approach to binding). Other bindings
are located directly in the root folder named according to the language or
framework. Currently there's only a binding for D.
* C API
The "plain C API" is a very low-level API intended to be used for bindings.
To access a certain module of the library, just include the according header
file from the psyc directory:
: #include <psyc.h> // basic things for well-being
: #include <psyc/parse.h> // parse psyc packets
: #include <psyc/render.h> // render psyc packets
: #include <psyc/text.h> // text template functions
: #include <psyc/packet.h> // structures for render.h and functions to initialize them
: #include <psyc/syntax.h> // definitions and constants related to parsing and rendering
For more information see the API documentation at [[http://lib.psyc.eu/doc/]].
