simconnectrs

An opinionated wrapper around SimConnect which allows safe calling between the C api and Rust. Easy to use, and easy to create new datatypes for use in SimConnect.

Installation

• Install the SimConnect SDK. Instructions located here

• Specify if you want to dynamically or staticly link the library via a feature flag (static_link)

  Cargo Addons

• static_link

  • This will tell the compiler to staticly link SimConnect instead of requiring a .dll dependency

• async

  • This will allow you to use asyncrounous versions of this API, such as waiting for data to be retrieved from SimConnect.

• derive

  • This will allow you to easily create SimConnect structs by using a derive macro

    Features

• Async runtime

  • data is fetched on a background thread and returned to the client
• Rust style enums
  • Use rust enums instead of C-Style vars to communicate with SimConnect
• Auto-struct serialization
  • Using the derive macro provided, easily create structs which can communicate with SimConnect
• Listener based event system
  • Instead of polling for events, just subscribe to an event and your callback will be invoked when an event is recieved.
