Blueprint changed by Rick Stovall: Whiteboard changed: - We need initial discussion on the email list to center around top level - methodology. Some of the most critical open issues are: + Okay, I'm paring down the features for the initial alpha: - 1. Use dynamic links libraries or an embedded scripting language. - 2. What simulation objects will be pluggable in the alpha phase. - 3. How much freedom to affect the simulation should plug-ins have? + 1. We'll stay with C++ for plugin implementation. + 2. For initial Alpha only, we will not use dynamic loading, although the "plugins" will be implemented as discrete code modules which use the target plugin API. - https://launchpad.net/ricks-ga is a proof-of-concept project to evaluate - the use of Lua as a scripted plugin approach. - - Lua examples: http://www.wellho.net/mouth/2455_Lua-examples-coroutines- - error-handling-objects-etc.html + We are well on the process of defining the API, and I've started the + abstract base class which will be used by all the plugins. See the + linked documentation for details.
