Some functions' API are missing?

[Blumenkranz]

It seems that we don't have the API for functions like p4est_quadrant_sibling.
See https://github.com/cburstedde/p4est/blob/aafb87d93e33dffe24d67533d56bc2f0cdb72605/src/p4est_bits.c#L1250
I'm not sure if this is normal.

We don't wrap all of the headers provided by p4est. Currently, we generate bindings for

P4est.jl/dev/generator.jl

Lines 31 to 33 in 62a86e0

	headers_rel = ["p4est.h", "p4est_extended.h", "p4est_search.h",
	"p6est.h", "p6est_extended.h",
	"p8est.h", "p8est_extended.h", "p8est_search.h"]

and their dependent headers, which are

p4est_connectivity.h
sc_io.h
sc.h
sc_config.h
sc_mpi.h
sc_containers.h
p4est_base.h
p4est_config.h
p4est_mesh.h
p4est_ghost.h
p4est_iterate.h
p4est_lnodes.h
p8est_connectivity.h
p8est_mesh.h
p8est_ghost.h
p8est_iterate.h
p8est_lnodes.h
sc_uint128.h

i.e. p4est_bits.h is not part of that. See also one of the items here.

I see. I will try to access them by myself. Thanks!

You could also clone P4est.jl, add "p4est_bits.h" to the list of headers in dev/generator.jl I linked above, create the LibP4est.jl file as described in the dev/README, copy the new LibP4est.jl into src/ and use a dev'ed P4est.jl version.

Great advice. Thanks again!
