History

fix Cross-file FFI exports silently disappear from bindings. genBindings() only sees procs registered in modules that were imported transitively before its call. A downstream

user who adds {.ffi.} in a sub-module that isn't pulled into the root file gets a successful build with missing methods. The README warns about this, but there's no
  compile-time diagnostic — the registry could at least error if genBindings() is called and the count looks suspicious, or expose a way to assert "I expect N exports."

cpp_bindings

fix nlohmann namespace injection of optional adapters is ODR-fragile (cpp.nim:66–78). Every header that does this races every other header that does the same. In a small

rust_bindings

fix build.rs is broken on Windows (rust.nim:112–115). lib_ext is only set under cfg(target_os = "macos"|"linux"). On Windows the symbol is undefined → compile error. The

fix Async constructor cannot specify a timeout (rust.nim:416). new_async hardcodes Duration::from_secs(30) for all subsequent calls on the produced Ctx, while blocking create

nim_timer example

This example is a self-contained Nimble project demonstrating how to import nim-ffi and use the .ffiCtor. / .ffi. abstraction.

Usage

Change into the example directory:
```
cd examples/nim_timer
```
Install the local ffi dependency:
```
nimble install -y ../..
```
Build the example library:
```
nimble build
```

Generate bindings:

nimble genbindings_rust
nimble genbindings_cpp

Rust example clients

The Rust client lives in examples/nim_timer/rust_client.

Run the sync example:

cd examples/nim_timer/rust_client
cargo run --bin rust_client

Run the Tokio example:

cd examples/nim_timer/rust_client
cargo run --bin tokio_client

C++ example

The generated C++ example lives in examples/nim_timer/cpp_bindings.

Build and run it with:

cd examples/nim_timer/cpp_bindings
cmake -S . -B build
cmake --build build
./build/example
