Yes, I remember talk of dbus! Any progress Shawn?
I am actually doing what you describe now and embedding Chicken to C
to handle s-expressions and bit stuffing them (packedobjects). I was
curious though to examine ways of removing the dependency of Chicken
from the graphical client and using dbus to communicate with another
entity that handles the s-expressions. Removing Chicken would simplify
building the graphical client on the mobile. The problem is just moved
to another place and hidden from C developers who could focus on the
client. If that makes sense.
whats wrong with simply including libchicken.so (built for whatever platform)
with the codeball for the graphical client? wouldnt need to build chicken
again there and youd be simplifying interfaces and reducing dependencies...
with a little work, you could even write some code that only used the bits
of chicken you needed, compile that to a static lib, and send that, if
space is at an insane premium...
