Cross compilation for Linux on Windows

[Ilyasml]

Hello

Is it possible to run CppSharp on Windows platform, but bet the output .cs file with code which imports functions from *.so file?

E.g. I have an .NetCore application, which theoretically can be run on both Linux and Windows. I import classed and functions on Windows using CppSharp via generated code

 [SuppressUnmanagedCodeSecurity, DllImport("ServerStubProject", EntryPoint = "?CreateTheInterface@@YAPEAVIMainInterfaceClass@@XZ", CallingConvention = __CallingConvention.Cdecl)]
 internal static extern __IntPtr CreateTheInterface();

I suppose something like this should be for Linux, however maybe entry points should be different, as far as I can say by nm -D output

000000000001ff6a T _Z18CreateTheInterfacev

So, the question is how can I setup the target platform for the generated .cs file?

Yes, just set the TargetTriple, check https://github.com/mono/CppSharp/blob/main/src/CppParser/ParserGen/ParserGen.cs#L50 and https://github.com/mono/CppSharp/blob/main/src/CppParser/ParserGen/ParserGen.cs#L158. It takes LLVM/Clang triples.

You will also need the Linux headers, see https://github.com/mono/CppSharp/releases/download/CppSharp/headers.zip for what we use.
