[PD] C++ for reusable dsp lib - or better use C?

Hi Katja,

You might want to have a look at a language called Vala:

	https://live.gnome.org/Vala

It's an OOP language ( looks like  C#) that compiles down to OOP C.   That way,
it is ABI compliant with all other C libs.  You can also create a C lib
yourself from it.

It was written with GNOME's GObject in mind,  so anything you write in Vala
would depend on libglib and libgobject....which may or may not be what you
want.  However, if you are creating a DSP library, the larger set of utility
features that libglib has to offer might come in handy.

best 

-august.
