the MFX API uses way too many unions and bindgen seems to make a lot of confusion and anonymous fields that you might have problems to access if the bindgen changes.

PROS:

  • Nicer low level abstraction

CONS:

  • Lots of work

NEUTRAL:

  • hand made bindings require to be updated manually
  • auto-generated bindings might break suddenly because how the api is currently mapped anyway.
