Features

The DynCall Plugin leverages the dyncall library to provide a powerful and flexible way to call C functions dynamically at runtime. This plugin encapsulates architecture-, OS-, and compiler-specific function call semantics into a simple interface, allowing developers to bind arguments manually and issue calls programmatically. Written in C and assembly, DynCall is lightweight, efficient, and easy to integrate into your projects.

Key Features

1. Dynamic Function Calls

• Call C functions dynamically at runtime without requiring their signatures at compile time.
• Bind arguments manually and issue calls programmatically.

2. Cross-Platform Compatibility

• Works seamlessly across different architectures (x86, x64, ARM) and operating systems (Windows, Linux, macOS).
• Handles architecture-specific calling conventions automatically.

3. Simple and Intuitive API

• Provides a clean and minimalistic C interface for easy integration.
• Supports both C and C++ projects.

4. Manual Argument Binding

• Push function arguments manually in the correct order before issuing the call.
• Supports all standard C data types, including integers, floats, pointers, and structs.

5. Lightweight and Efficient

• Minimal overhead for high-performance applications.
• Optimized for both speed and memory usage.

6. Extensible and Customizable

• Easily extendable to support custom calling conventions or data types.
• Ideal for use in scripting engines, plugin systems, and dynamic linking.

Use Cases

1. Scripting Engines

• Implement dynamic function calls for scripting languages.
• Bind native functions to scriptable interfaces.

2. Plugin Systems

• Call plugin functions dynamically without requiring static linking.
• Enable runtime extensibility for applications.

3. Debugging and Profiling

• Intercept and analyze function calls for debugging or profiling purposes.
• Log function arguments and return values dynamically.

4. Dynamic Linking

• Load and call functions from shared libraries (e.g., .dll or .so files) at runtime.
• Create flexible and modular applications.
