@cImport is going to disappear in Zig 0.17. Its deprecated in Zig 0.16.
Let's remove it now.
Replace @cImport with addTranslateC across pkg/ packages. Each
package now has a c_import.h header that is translated at build
time via addTranslateC and exposed as a "cimport" module import.
Converted packages:
- dcimgui
- fontconfig
- freetype
- glslang
- harfbuzz
- macos
- oniguruma
- opengl
- sentry
- spirv-cross
- wuffs
Omitted:
- gtk4-layer-shell - This has a bit more complexity with how it
interacts with GTK headers, so I need to consider this a bit more.
- src/ - It'll be cleaner to do this separately.
Zig unconditionally passes -nostdinc++ and adds its bundled
libc++/libc++abi include paths, which conflict with MSVC's own C++
runtime headers. The MSVC SDK directories (added via linkLibC)
already contain both C and C++ headers, so linkLibCpp is not needed.
This is the same fix already applied upstream to highway, simdutf,
utfcpp, glslang, SharedDeps, and GhosttyZig.
