New: Version 3

V1 replaced Boost with C++11. V2 added Lua bindings. V3 refactored to remove some warts, ease future development, and re-add serialisation. API is evolving.

About

Ponder is a C++ multi-purpose reflection library. It provides an abstraction for most of the high-level concepts of C++: classes, enumerations, functions, properties.

C++1x supplies better support for compile-time reflection. Runtime reflection involves baking compile-time reflection into the executable so this can be used at runtime. Ponder presents a simple API for baking your objects so that they can be used at runtime. The baking can also, optionally, userdata and support for Lua scripting.

Features:

  • API to expose C++ objects.
  • Runtime API to create objects, call functions, and read and modify properties.
  • Automatic Lua binding generation.

Build

Ponder uses CMake to generate project files. E.g. Use Ninja to build Ponder:

git clone https://github.com/billyquith/ponder.git
cd ponder
mkdir build && cd build
cmake -G Ninja ..
ninja

History

Ponder is a fork of CAMP, which has been retired by the original authors. CAMP relies on Boost, and is pre-C++11. In Ponder, the Boost dependency has been removed, and instead, C++11 features are used. CAMP was developed by Technogerma Systems France and then by Tegesoft.

See CHANGELOG.md and release notes for more details on Ponder changes.
