JoltC

JoltC

C wrapper for Jolt Physics 5.0.0.

Currently a work in progress. Bindings contain functions that we've needed as part of our game or the Rust bindings we're working on in jolt-rust.

Goals

1. Sound C wrapper around current version of Jolt Physics
2. Headers suitable for usage in automatic binding generation tools (i.e. Rust bindgen, LuaJIT FFI)

Building

Use CMake:

cmake -B build
cmake --build build

Hello, world!

A port of Jolt's "HelloWorld" example is provided in HelloWorld/main.cpp.

Other C Wrappers

Other C wrappers for Jolt Physics include:

• "JoltC", part of the zphysics Zig library started by Michal Ziulek
  • Note: This library has several sources of unsoundness and UB and has fallen out of date.
• "JoltC", part of the jolt-rs Rust library started by cohaereo and a fork of the zphysics C wrapper
• "joltc", part of the JoltPhysicsSharp C# library started by Amer Koleci

The goal of this project is to be the first C wrapper around Jolt Physics that is not part of a larger binding project and to eliminate sources of unsoundness and undefined behavior. It's intended to be useful for any other language-specific bindings and to reduce the need to duplicate work.
