  • Silk.NET

    • Project mention: How to Use the Foreign Function API in Java 22 to Call C Libraries | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-05-08

    Genuine curiosity - what would be your motivation to use Java over C# here aside from familiarity (which is perfectly understandable)? The latter takes heavy focus on making sure to provide features like structs and pointers with little to no friction, you can even AOT compile it and statically link SDL2 into a single executable.

    But either way, if you want to try it out, then all it needs is

    - SDK from https://dot.net/download (or package manager of your choice if you are on Linux e.g. `sudo apt-get install dotnet-sdk-8.0`, !do not! use Homebrew if you are on macOS however, use .pkg installer)

    - C# extension for VS Code (DevKit is not needed)

    - SDL2 bindings: https://github.com/dotnet/Silk.NET
