Hi, I have some progress on this, but that is more on a personal experimental level and not (yet) broadly discussed in the INAETICS project. I have no problems doing this work in the Celix repro, actually I would prefer that. But currently I using python to work with IDL stuff. I am not a python expert, but the language - for me - fits the problem. Is there any objections that we add some - for now, don't known about later - python code, purely for code generation - to Apache Celix? > > Back to the subject of this thread, the report is imho complete, if there > is still something missing, let me know! > If more info is needed on the other subjects, please start a new mail > thread. > > > -- > Met vriendelijke groet, > > Alexander Broekhuis
