# TensorFlow Lite C API
|
|
|
|
This directory contains C APIs for TensorFlow Lite. This includes C APIs
|
|
for common types, like kernels and delegates, as well as an explicit C API
|
|
for inference.
|
|
|
|
## Header summary
|
|
|
|
Each public C header contains types and methods for specific uses:
|
|
|
|
* `common.h` - Contains common C enums, types and methods used throughout
|
|
TensorFlow Lite. This includes everything from error codes, to the kernel
|
|
and delegate APIs.
|
|
* `builtin_op_data.h` - Contains op-specific data that is used for builtin
|
|
kernels. This should only be used when (re)implementing a builtin operator.
|
|
* `c_api.h` - Contains the TensorFlow Lite C API for inference. The
|
|
functionality here is largely equivalent (though a strict subset of) the
|
|
functionality provided by the C++ `Interpreter` API.
|
|
* `c_api_experimental.h` - Contains experimental C API methods for inference.
|
|
These methods are useful and usable, but aren't yet part of the stable API.
|
|
|
|
## Using the C API
|
|
|
|
See the [`c_api.h`](c_api.h) header for API usage details.
|
|
|
|
## Building the C API
|
|
|
|
A native shared library target that contains the C API for inference has been
|
|
provided. Assuming a working [bazel](https://bazel.build/versions/master/docs/install.html)
|
|
configuration, this can be built as follows:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
bazel build -c opt //tensorflow/lite/c:tensorflowlite_c
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
and for Android (replace `android_arm` with `android_arm64` for 64-bit),
|
|
assuming you've [configured your project for Android builds](../g3doc/guide/android.md):
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
bazel build -c opt --cxxopt=--std=c++11 --config=android_arm \
|
|
//tensorflow/lite/c:tensorflowlite_c
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The generated shared library will be available in your
|
|
`bazel-bin/tensorflow/lite/c` directory. A target which packages the shared
|
|
library together with the necessary headers (`c_api.h`, `c_api_experimental.h`
|
|
and `common.h`) will be available soon, and will also be released as a prebuilt
|
|
archive (together with existing prebuilt packages for Android/iOS).
