Hi Oliora and Scott, I am going to work on C binding stuff in the beginning of 2010. Maybe, it will be very soon (sometime in January). Thanks.

Sorry for my English > > hi andrey, one idea for a c++ binding would be to use the c binding. the existing c binding needs some small amount of work to make it compile and build. there are notes left behind by the author, but nobody has yet had time to figure it out. one of our committers, youngjin park, has also offered to take it on. once the runtime is made to work, a compiler to generate code using the runtime would be pretty easy. my thinking is, once you understand the way the c binding works, you could c++ify it. or start over and use c# or java as templates / examples. the source code for the c binding is on trunk, which is currently more or less the same as the 1.1 dev stream. http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/etch/trunk/ notes are here: http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/etch/trunk/binding-c/runtime/c /project/notes/ i believe the current build is using the visual studio 2003. (the rest of the etch build uses vs 2005). perhaps james will say something about the status of the python binding. scott out
