Generate julia code using GLib

[sa-]

Hey all,

How was this file generated? https://github.com/JuliaGraphics/Gtk.jl/blob/master/gen/gbox2

Is it possible to generate such code for other libraries from their typelib files? I'm looking specifically at Apache Arrow, which provides typelib files.

these files are done using Clang.jl and reading header files. This approach should work for all C libraries. Since the script files are a little bit older, the currently do not run with current Julia. Here is a PR to get them going again: #535

Thanks! I'll close this issue
