Re: [Sunuml-developers] About Language

[Steven G. <laz...@gm...>]

Hey all,

The discussion about the language seems to hold the progress of the project.
So in order for this project to make forward progress I believe I must take
a decision about which language to use.

Most of you advocated for Pyhton and several of you noted Python should
speed up the project. As lot of code, Python will do, because the project is
a GUI based program which will wait most of the time for user input.

When needed part can be reimplemented in C++ and use the python disttools to
allow inclusion of (un)compiled c/c++ modules.

And "freeze" from Mcmillan (
http://davidf.sjsoft.com/mirrors/mcmillan-inc/install1.html) to distribute
the application


Hence, even if my expertise lays more with C++, I think we should go with *
Python* first and C++ when needed.


Now I ask those of you who put forward the argument that Pyhton enable
fast prototyping and coding to prove it :D


The next task should be to complete a simple planning and basic architecture
design.

PS*: What do you think about using this import framework:

Let the fun begin,
