There's a tool called "scapix" that's popped up recently that fixes this and is really impressive. It's zero-boilerplate (IE, don't need to manually write bindings like most tools) bindings from C++ code for both Swift/ObjC and Java. The idea being you can write C++ code and then consume it on both mobile platforms, making your life easier. https://github.com/scapix-com/scapix It also is really useful if you want to use Java from C++. Manual JNI invocation and type translation is awful, this just smoothes over all of it. https://github.com/scapix-com/scapix#java-link Good usecase being when you want to extend a Java app with some native capabilities. I've had a scenario where another app handed me the pointer to a window to render to, and so the only way to use it from JVM was to write some bridge code. Where C++ started the JVM & invoked my Java app's entrypoint, sending over the window pointer, and then from there I could render/paint into the window.
