we're working with * python & some c++ * Tk for gui at present, thinking of switching to wxwidgets * matplotlib for plotting There were some memory leaks with python, but I think all that has been resolved now. The SWIG package was developed to help people bind scripting languages to drive C or C++ code that does the heavy lifting, such as simulations. Python is arguably the best supported binding. This might enable your users to bind their simulation libs to python, then use your frontend for gui-based control & display. www.swig.org.
