Using FreeType in Lispworks

Hi all,

I’m wondering if anyone knows of a generated set of foreign interface bindings for Freetype2 that works with lispworks.

I’m planning on using a prebuilt dynamic library, so I don’t need it to compile freetype as part of the process. I’m working on MacOS right now, but eventually will use win32 and linux as well.

I’ve successfully called parts of the API with lispworks FLI, but it’s a lot to stub out. :)

I’ve tried a small bit using the lispworks foreign-parser, but it appears that the headers may be too complicated to just run through it without a fair amount of hacking.

I’ve also tried using cl-freetype2 that uses cffi under the covers but get errors with cffi-grovel when it tries to compile it as part of the quickload. (I get the same build issues on SBCL too)

Cheers,
Steve
