What tool to use to convert C source code into Go source code?
For example, if the C code contains:
struct Node {
struct Node *left, *right;
void *data;
};
char charAt(char *s, int i) {
return s[i];
}
the corresponding Go code generated by the tool should be:
type Node struct {
left, right *Node
data interface{}
}
func charAt(s string, i int) byte {
return s[i]
}
The tool does not need to be perfect. It is OK if some parts of the generated Go code need to be corrected by hand.
rsc created github.com/rsc/c2go to convert the c based Go compiler into Go.
As an external example, akavel seems to be trying to use it to create a Go based lua: github.com/akavel/goluago/
github.com/xyproto/c2go is another project, but it hasn't been touched in a little while.
