Hi Recep,

I recently got interested in wrapping Metal in Julia to do some GPGPU computing, and started from your repository to write the wrappers to C that I would need.

I ended up wrapping most of the Compute pipeline, kernel reflection stuff... I think I wrapped most of Metal, except for 3d-rendering-specific stuff because I'm not really interested in it at the moment.

It's all in my fork, in case you are interested.

Thanks again for starting this work!

Hi @PhilipVinc

Thank you for letting me know and interested in cmt project. I couldn't be fast enough to finish the project :) I hope I'll soon.

Would you like to merge the fork?

Also there is another project I'm working on: gpu (https://github.com/recp/gpu), see include directory: https://github.com/recp/gpu/tree/master/gpu/gpu/include/gpu . I'll keep src and include then remove other files.

It uses cmt project for Metal, and I want to make it cross platform GPU + GPGPU library (Metal + DirectX + Vulkan...). My render engine (http://github.com/recp/gk) will use that as backend (currently it uses OpenGL)

After finished gpu library I hope you will find it interesting. It's api may change overtime until first release.
