### Binding generator for Scala Native

[Scala Native](http://www.scala-native.org/en/latest/) provides bindings for several
[C](http://www.scala-native.org/en/latest/lib/libc.html) and
[POSIX](http://www.scala-native.org/en/latest/lib/posixlib.html) APIs out of the box.
To help complete and maintain [the list](https://github.com/scala-native/scala-native/issues/104)
of supported APIs as well as seamlessly use 3rd party native libraries support for automatically
generating bindings is needed. The goal is to create a Scala Native program that parses C header files
using [libclang](http://clang.llvm.org/doxygen/group__CINDEX.html) and generates a Scala Native API
as well as an sbt plugin to use the binding generator in a project.

A previous
[proof-of-concept](https://github.com/scala-native/scala-native/pull/642) may serve as a starting point.
