Hello Rohith,
The automatic bindings project should provide a program which can be
used to transform some kind of "algorithm definition" into a working
executable or working bindings for other languages. The project is very
open-ended, so basically the only requirements are that
1) it is an easy system for developers to use, and
2) maintainers do not have to maintain a different binding for each
language.
One idea might look a little like this (assuming my ASCII art isn't
mangled in your mail reader):
+-------------------------+
| binding definition file |
+-------------------------+
|
|
V
+-----------------------------+
| automatic binding generator |
+-----------------------------+
/ | \
/ | \
V V V
+-----+ +--------+ +--------+
| cli | | MATLAB | | python |
+-----+ +--------+ +--------+
Hopefully this provides the insight you are looking for. If there are
other questions I can answer, feel free to ask.
Thanks,
Ryan
