Re: [Plastic-devs] spectrum messaging

[Noel W. <Noe...@ma...>]

Hi.
I don't know if there's any messages defined for spectra.

at the moment the workbench bundles an in-process jar of vospec, and  
controls it directly using direct method calls - no plastic here.

Although there is a standalone version of vospec, I've not managed to  
send it any messages it'll respond to. I beleive it's implemented to  
the early version of the plastic spec where you can leave the list of  
supported messages empty to indicate 'all messages'.

IIRC, I was told by the ESAC folk that there's a new version of  
vospec in the pipeline - so maybe this is a good time to define some  
spectra messages.
