  Rust supports two kinds of FFI: calling into Rust from another language; and calling into another language from Rust. Most of the thought and tooling that exists right now is organized around the second kind. For example, bindgen is a popular tool that generates useful Rust wrappers from a C or C++ header file.

  I have looked into bindgen, but found that it would not be feasible due to OMPL not having a C API, just C++.

  Yes! Are you running LLVM version 16.0.0 or newer, by any chance? I believe this is an issue with some builds of bindgen with newer versions of LLVM. See https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-bindgen/issues/2488

  On native, you have to define a C API, probably using a header file. Even if both sides are implemented in Rust, they have to speak that C API (documentation).

  It looks like the guy you're replying too was kind of an ass, but I do want to point out for anyone else reading that that's not actually that much of a technical limitation: rust code can natively call C code. The main thing you need is a translation of the C library's header file so rustc knows what C functions and structs exist, and that can be automatically generated with bindgen.

  It's quite the different approach, but you could consider using bindgen instead.

  While I'd also not really like that it's made easier by binding-generators (rust-bindgen for example generates bindings to C (and to some extent C++)). You'll most likely still wanna wrap the generated code into an idiomatic rust API but at least the super painful work can be automated.

  Using C libraries from Rust is straightforward with bindgen. Using C++-libraries is less so, but should be doable using cxx. Fortunately, I haven't had a need for that myself, so I can't say how much of a hassle it is.
