}

Gamepad state data as returned by getGamepadState.

Module functions. These are mostly identical to their original GLFW counterparts.

There are no bindings for the glfwSet,Get*UserPointer functions because you would have to use unsafe features to set the correct type for your data. If you need to make user data accessible inside a callback you can instead capture it in a closure and use that closure as your callback function.

There is no binding for the glfwWindowHintString function. Simply pass your string to the windowHint function as you would for any other value type.

The window parameter of the set,getClipboardString functions has been deprecated and is no longer used. You may pass the unit value (or anything) as the window argument.

There is no binding for the glfwGetProcAddress function because it would basicaly require to write an entire OpenGL wrapper to make the functions returned by GLFW usable from OCaml. Incidentaly the glfwExtensionSupported function is not provided either. There are numerous OpenGL bindings available for OCaml that you can use instead.

The Vulkan related functions are not supported as of now but we might look into it at some point.
