[Playerstage-developers] Rewriting festival.cc using the C++ API

[Sigrid R. <s.r...@au...>]

I am considering rewriting the Festival driver to use the C++ API 
instead of sockets. But I am having trouble getting even a small program 
using the C++ API to compile. Apparently you have to include and link 
with a whole bunch of files. Has anyone ever attempted this?

The reason I want to rewrite it is that I've been extending the 
functionality of the driver and I've run into problems with reading back 
return values from the socket and making sense of them. I think using 
the functions of the C++ API would make that part easier.
