I'm making a program that receives messages from the iPhone App touchOSC.
These messages are packaged into UPD datagrams.
There's an open-source library (liblo) that handles the details of receiving
the UDP messages and decoding the OSC protocol.
I want to make a c library that's callable from lisp. I was thinking of the
following three functions, which capture everything I need for this project:
void init_osc(int port, void(*callback)(char* data));
void osc_done(void);
init_osc() would be called to initialize liblo. It takes a port number,
which is the port that liblo should listen on, and a function pointer. When
liblo receives an OSC message, it will call this callback, passing it an
ordinary c string representation of the message.
This callback will be made in the context of a thread spawned by liblo
during the init_osc() call.
The other function osc_done() would be called when the program is exiting,
to do any cleanup the library needs.
Now to my question: Will this work? Is it possible for this liblo thread to
call into my lisp program, passing a string?
If no, what's a better way to do this?
If yes, what syntax do I use to set up the callback?
Thanks,
Neil
