Type Provider for external C library interop needs some guide

General

Hi, I was trying to develop a native C interop library in F#.

I wonder if there is a way to leverage F# type provider to read that C library header file, parse it and use the AST to generate the boilerplate binding code.

I read several type provider projects code, but there still things unclear to me, specifically the following:

  1. How to mark a ProvidedMethod as extern?
  2. How to generate a plain struct (value type) with StructLayout(LayoutKind.Explicit) attributes?

I don’t know if that is possible? Please give any suggestion to me, thanks!
