First official release of hs-bindgen

Well-Typed announces the 1.0 release of hs-bindgen, a tool that automatically generates Haskell bindings from C headers. The release introduces FFI types for more portable foreign function translations, improved handling of unnamed/anonymous C declarations via indirect HasField instances, better OverloadedRecordUpdate support for unions, and significant macro-handling improvements including parsing partially-unparseable macros, ambiguous macro detection, and command-line macro definitions. Future work targets automatic generation of high-level bindings via a separate binding-combinators library, sponsored by Anduril.
