It generates both C/C++ and H files but not on the fly.
You have to generate the thunks in advance.

The code is in this project:

https://github.com/robert-j/Mono.Embedding/tree/master/Mono.Embedding.ThunkTool

in Program.cs. It's basic reflection stuff.

You can see it in action when you compile the whole solution
and run it on Mono.Embedding.dll [1].

Mono's native embedding APIs (generics & implementing
delegates in C/C++).
