EmbreeSharp

EmbreeSharp is a C# Low-level binding for embree

Target framework is .NET 7

Build

Clone this project.

Put the native libraries into the folder. For example, your OS is win11 x64. You should put embree4.dll, tbb12.dll and tbbmalloc.dll into EmbreeSharp\runtimes\win-x64\native

Now you can build the project by anyway. For example using the cmd dotnet build --configuration Release

This project use Github Action to build automatically. You can check out the build script in .github\workflows\publish.yml for more help

Details

This project use ClangSharp to generate binding code. Generated code with some tweaks.

Currently clangsharp cannot generate bindings for opaque struct. Like RTCDevice, it's actually struct RTCDeviceTy*. We can use System.IntPtr to interop. But for type safety, I think create a C# struct contains a System.IntPtr is the best way.

Unfortunately, I don't know how to autoload the embree which is built by official project. Because it depends on tbb. And tbb is not included in the search path. I use System.Runtime.InteropServices.NativeLibrary.SetDllImportResolver to set custom load logic to support load embree on win, linux and osx.

In the future, I may create some wrapper classes to avoid unsafe API. If you have great idea, welcome PRs!
