Everything about Wrapper library
Software library for programming
Wrapper libraries consist of a thin layer of code which translates a library's existing interface into a compatible interface. This is done for several reasons:To refine a poorly designed or complicated interface Allow code to work together which otherwise cannot Enable cross language and/or runtime interoperability Wikipedia →
