There are a lot of C++ (mostly able to be compiled by VS, probably not C++Builder) code out there.

I’d like to know how do most Delphi programmers make use of these C++ libraries.

Call c++ class library from Delphi

How To Use A C++ DLL In Any Delphi Program

I found these 2 links. The 2nd link mentions using a “proxy DLL”. Is it any different from the first link?

Lastly, is there an automated way to generate C-interface DLL or “proxy DLL” (or equivalent) for Delphi? Translating for all the C++ libraries that we would like to use would be time-consuming.

Note: I will not be using C++Builder; just need the C++ code to be called by Delphi (C++ code is open source, so code is available)

I was thinking enough time could have passed since the first article was written, so perhaps tools that I am not aware of may have become available.

Thanks!
