cmutton

Official C bindings for libmutton.

This repository contains what is needed to generate a C library+headers for interfacing with libmutton in native code. The bindings were written by hand and cover all libmutton functionality that is possible to export to C.

Usage

Building

go build -buildmode=c-archive.

Functions

All relevant exported libmutton functions have C functions of the same name. Functions with multiple return values all have CGO-generated structs to store the return values. These structs are named <FunctionName>_return, as per CGO. All functions perform similar basic operations, with a couple caveats:

• Anything that would normally return a Go error now returns a null-terminated *C.char containing the error string. These are safe to null-terminate because their values are much more predictable than other strings. Errors are always the first return value, so they can always be referenced with <result>.r0.
• Many things that would normally require/return a Go string or byte slice now require/return a C.PascalString struct. This is to avoid bugs with null-terminated strings.

Additionally, since comments tend to fall out of date, please rely on the Go documentation for libmutton. Documentation for the CGO bindings present in this repo only specify return values.

Example (decrypting and printing lines of a libmutton entry)

Build the following example with gcc <filename> ./cmutton.a.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include "cmutton.h" // import cmutton

static void read_input(const char *prompt, char *buffer, size_t size) {
    printf("%s", prompt);
    fflush(stdout);
    if (fgets(buffer, size, stdin) == NULL) {
        fprintf(stderr, "Error reading user input\n");
        exit(1);
    }
    // remove trailing newline
    buffer[strlen(buffer)-1] = '\0';
}

int main() {
    char vanityPath[256];
    char password[256];
    read_input("Enter vanity path: ", vanityPath, sizeof(vanityPath));
    read_input("Enter password: ", password, sizeof(password));

    // use CGO-generated struct to get multiple return values
    struct DecryptFileToSlice_return result = DecryptFileToSlice(GetRealPath(vanityPath), GetPascalStringFromCString(password));

    // familiar error handling pattern
    if (result.r0 != NULL) {
        printf("Error: %s\n", result.r0);
        exit(1); // result.r0 not freed since program exits
    }

    for (int i = 0; i < result.r2; i++) {
        // print Pascal string using "%.*s" with printf and supplying both length and data
        printf("%.*s\n", result.r1[i].len, result.r1[i].data);
    }

    // be sure to free the data!
    FreeArray(result.r1, result.r2);
}
