You need two things:

  1. Call c/c++ build system from cargo and link resulted file to rust code
  2. Describe c/c++ functions and types on Rust to call them as ordinary rust functions

To do 1 you can use cc or cmake crates, cmake crate usage you can see for example
here: https://github.com/servo/skia

To do 2 you can use bindgen crate.
