Jason Larabie 52b6c66fa1 Add C++ Bindings (#3544)
# Description of Changes

This adds C++ server bindings (/crate/bindings-cpp) to allow writing C++
20 modules.

- Emscripten WASM build system integration with CMake
- Macro-based code generation (SPACETIMEDB_TABLE, SPACETIMEDB_REDUCER,
etc)
- All SpacetimeDB types supported (primitives, Timestamp, Identity,
Uuid, etc)
- Product types via SPACETIMEDB_STRUCT
- Sum types via SPACETIMEDB_ENUM
- Constraints marked with FIELD* macros

# API and ABI breaking changes

None

# Expected complexity level and risk

2 - Doesn't heavily impact any other areas but is complex macro C++
structure to support a similar developer experience, did have a small
impact on init command

# Testing

- [x] modules/module-test-cpp - heavily tested every reducer
- [x] modules/benchmarks-cpp - tested through the standalone (~6x faster
than C#, ~6x slower than Rust)
- [x] modules/sdk-test-cpp
- [x] modules/sdk-test-procedure-cpp
- [x] modules/sdk-test-view-cpp  
- [x] Wrote several test modules myself
- [x] Quickstart smoketest [Currently in progress]
- [ ] Write Blackholio C++ server module

SDK Test Procedure C++ - Rust Client

Rust client for testing the sdk-test-procedure-cpp module.

Setup

  1. Build the C++ module:

    cd ..
    .\compile.bat
    
  2. Start SpacetimeDB (if not already running):

    spacetime start
    
  3. Publish the module:

    cd build
    spacetime publish --project-path .. lib.wasm --clear-database
    
  4. Generate Rust bindings:

    cd ../client
    spacetime generate --lang rust --out-dir src/module_bindings --project-path .
    
  5. Run the client:

    cargo run
    

Environment Variables

  • SPACETIMEDB_HOST - SpacetimeDB host URL (default: http://localhost:3000)
  • SPACETIMEDB_DB_NAME - Database name (default: sdk-test-procedure-cpp)

Procedure Tests

The client will test the following procedures:

  • return_primitive(lhs, rhs) - Returns sum of two uint32 values
  • return_struct(a, b) - Returns struct with fields
  • return_constant() - Returns constant 42
  • will_fail(value) - Returns error when value=0

Notes

This is a standalone Rust project, not part of the root workspace.
