Structify Pro #
Structify Pro is a Dart package that allows you to create and use structs, which are data structures that can store multiple values of different types under a single name. Structify Pro uses the Dart FFI (foreign function interface) to interoperate with C++ code, providing better performance and memory efficiency than using objects. Structify Pro is compatible with both Flutter and non-Flutter projects, and supports various platforms such as Android, iOS, Windows, Linux, and macOS. Structify Pro is a useful package for developers who want to work with complex data types and native code in Dart.
Features #

Create structs from classes or objects with the @struct annotation
Access and modify struct fields with getters and setters
Convert structs to and from bytes with the toBytes and fromBytes methods
Pass structs to and from C++ functions with the asPointer and fromPointer methods
Support for nested structs, arrays, and pointers

Installation #
To use Structify Pro, add it as a dependency in your pubspec.yaml file:
dependencies:
structify_pro: ^1.0.0

Then, run dart pub get to download the package.
Usage
To use Structify Pro, you need to import it in your Dart code:
import 'package:structify_pro/structify_pro.dart';

You also need to write some C++ code that defines the structs and functions you want to use, and compile it into a dynamic library. For example, you can create a file called structs.cpp with the following content:
#include <stdint.h>

// A struct that represents a point in 2D space
struct Point {
int32_t x;
int32_t y;
};

// A function that calculates the distance between two points
extern "C" double distance(Point* p1, Point* p2) {
int32_t dx = p1->x - p2->x;
int32_t dy = p1->y - p2->y;
return sqrt(dx * dx + dy * dy);
}

Then, you can compile it into a dynamic library called structs.so (on Linux) with the following command:
g++ -fPIC -shared -o structs.so structs.cpp

You can also use other tools and platforms to create your dynamic library, as long as it is compatible with Dart FFI. Next, you need to create a Dart class that corresponds to the C++ struct, and annotate it with @struct. For example, you can create a file called point.dart with the following content:
import 'package:structify_pro/structify_pro.dart';

// A Dart class that represents a point in 2D space
@struct
class Point {
// The x and y coordinates of the point
int x;
int y;

// A constructor that initializes the fields
Point(this.x, this.y);
}

Finally, you can use the Structify Pro package to create and manipulate structs in your Dart code. For example, you can create a file called main.dart with the following content:
import 'dart:ffi';
import 'dart:io';

import 'package:structify_pro/structify_pro.dart';

import 'point.dart';

// A function that loads the dynamic library
DynamicLibrary loadLibrary(String name) {
if (Platform.isLinux) {
return DynamicLibrary.open(name);
} else {
// TODO: Add support for other platforms
throw UnimplementedError('Unsupported platform');
}
}

// A function that wraps the C++ function
double distance(Point p1, Point p2) {
// Load the dynamic library
final library = loadLibrary('structs.so');

// Look up the C++ function
final distanceFunc = library.lookupFunction<
Double Function(Pointer<Point>, Pointer<Point>),
double Function(Pointer<Point>, Pointer<Point>)>('distance');

// Convert the Dart structs to pointers
final p1Ptr = p1.asPointer();
final p2Ptr = p2.asPointer();

// Call the C++ function with the pointers
final result = distanceFunc(p1Ptr, p2Ptr);

// Free the pointers
p1Ptr.free();
p2Ptr.free();

// Return the result
return result;
}

void main() {
// Create two Dart structs
final p1 = Point(3, 4);
final p2 = Point(6, 8);

// Print the struct fields
print('p1: x = ${p1.x}, y = ${p1.y}');
print('p2: x = ${p2.x}, y = ${p2.y}');

// Calculate the distance between the structs
final dist = distance(p1, p2);

// Print the result
print('distance: $dist');
}

When you run the program, you should see the following output:
p1: x = 3, y = 4
p2: x = 6, y = 8
distance: 5.0
