mono-rt 0.1.0

//! Dynamic bindings to the Mono runtime for Windows.
//!
//! This crate attaches to a Mono runtime that is **already loaded in the current process** — it
//! does not start a new JIT domain. The intended use case is process injection into Unity games
//! and other Mono-hosted applications, where the Mono DLL is already mapped into memory before
//! any code in this crate runs.
//!
//! # Initialization
//!
//! Before using any type in this crate, call [`init`] with the name of the Mono module as it
//! appears in the host process. Common values:
//!
//! - `"mono.dll"` — Unity 2017 and earlier (legacy Mono)
//! - `"mono-2.0-bdwgc.dll"` — Unity 2018+ (Boehm GC)
//! - `"mono-2.0.dll"` — standalone Mono installations
//!
//! [`init`] uses `GetModuleHandleW` internally, so the DLL must already be loaded; it does not
//! call `LoadLibrary`.
//!
//! # Threading model
//!
//! Mono requires every thread that calls into the runtime to be registered with the garbage
//! collector. Use [`MonoThreadGuard::attach`] to register the current thread before making any
//! Mono API calls. The guard automatically deregisters the thread when dropped.
//!
//! All handle types (`MonoClass`, `MonoObject`, …) are `!Send + !Sync`. They are bound to the
//! thread on which they were obtained and cannot be moved to another thread without explicit
//! `unsafe` code. This mirrors the per-thread attachment requirement: a handle is only valid on
//! an attached thread, and the compiler prevents it from silently crossing that boundary.
//!
//! See [`MonoThreadGuard`] for the full contract.
//!
//! # Usage
//!
//! ```no_run
//! use mono_rt::prelude::*;
//!
//! // resolve exports from the already-loaded Mono DLL
//! mono_rt::init("mono-2.0-bdwgc.dll")?;
//!
//! // attach the current thread — keep the guard live for the duration of all Mono work
//! let _guard = unsafe { MonoThreadGuard::attach()? };
//!
//! // navigate the assembly graph
//! let image = MonoImage::find("Assembly-CSharp")?.expect("assembly not loaded");
//! let class = image.class_from_name("", "Player")?.expect("class not found");
//!
//! // enumerate all fields and print their names and types
//! for field in class.fields()? {
//!     let name = field.name()?;
//!     let kind = field.mono_type()?.and_then(|t| t.kind().ok());
//!     println!("{name}: {kind:?}");
//! }
//!
//! // read a field value directly from a live object
//! let hp_field = class.field("m_health")?.expect("field not found");
//! let offset = hp_field.offset()?;
//! // obj_ptr is a *mut c_void obtained from a previous MonoObject::as_ptr() call
//! // let hp: f32 = unsafe { mono_rt::read_field(obj_ptr, offset) };
//! # Ok::<(), MonoError>(())
//! ```
