Thread: [tuxdroid-user] C++ Library

SourceForge Headquarters 225 Broadway Suite 1600 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 422-6466

Is there a C++ library that I can use to interact with the droid? I'd really 
rather not use python, and C++ (with Qt\KDE) is what I like to use.

I'm not an expert on the code at all, but I think the real code is
actually in C (with python bindings). It's not quite the same, but it
should work.

Hmmm.. Is this in the SVN repo ? I presume it's GPL2+, right?

The daemon is written in C, it's on SVN. For now it opens a port and the  
python API connects to it and offer _a_lot_ of other functionalities.  
Parts of the daemon are currently rewritten as a Library. It's mostly the  
parts that deal with the USB and hndles commands and status from tux. That  
library will be used to rebuild the same daemon but you could also choose  
to bypass the daemon/python API and use the library directly.

Now we thought about something better than the current daemon, like  
xml-rpc so you could use any language (xml-rpc clients exist in most of  
them) to address your tux very easily.

Cheers,
David

Hello,

I ported most of the basic functionalities in c# with mono using the =20
tcp socket connexion with tuxdaemon,
you can grab the code at : http://stream.dedale.eu.org/tuxdroid
I was part of a school project, and we made an UPnP connectivity for =20
tuxdroid, except for the voice part (which was a bit complicated in c#).

No offence meant, but ew. I'm not going to infect my computer with mono 
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infectious_mononucleosis>, thank you very 
much. :P

I remember seeing a Ruby API a while back, too.

Has DBUS been considered? It's now standard for all KDE4 apps, and AFAIR, it's 
used in GNOME and is implemented in lots of languages, so that people can 
have flamewars over what language is better without hindering development of 
tux droid software.

I think that dbus is a really good option too. There are a lot of 
implementation in many languages, and people may choose their favorite 
graphic library (qt, gtk, etc) to develop the clients gui.
