Automated Wrapping of Complex C++ Code

Listing 3: CABLE configuration file

// countertcl_config.cxx
// CABLE input file to build CounterTcl package.

// Define Counter class in-line in the configuration file.

class Counter

  T Get() const { return value; }
  void Set(T v) { value = v; }
  void Reset() { value = 0; }
  void Increment() { ++value; }
private:
  T value;
};

// The symbol "CABLE_CONFIGURATION" is defined only when CABLE is
// reading this file.  Place the CABLE-specific code inside this
// section so it cannot be seen by the compiler.
#ifdef CABLE_CONFIGURATION
namespace _cable_

  // Specify package name.  Group configuration allows multiple
  // configuration files to define wrappers for a single package.

    // wrappers should be called.
    typedef Counter<int> Counter_int;
    typedef Counter<float> Counter_float;

// the methods are available.
