[PD] OSCX or mrpeach/osc ?

2009-03-25 Thread Alvaro
Hi,

I'm working on a new patch that uses OSC. I've been using OSCX so far, but then 
I came accross a page on pdpedia
that claims OSCX is no longer maintained, and that I should use mrpeach's 
objects instead. SVN history seems to confirm this, but then OSCX worksforme, 
is well documented, and there are plenty of examples. 
So, I don't want to step on anybody's toes, but what is the right choice for a 
new project? The alternative, to build an abstraction layer, would mean a lot 
of extra work. mrpeach are you there?

Well you can use whatever you like. OSCX is probably easier for basic 
stuff. The mrpeach versions also allow you to force the type of each 
argument, route dynamically, use timestamps, broadcast, and send OSC 
over TCP or serial instead of UDP.

I'd use the mrpeach objects.  oscx is much more limited and  
unmaintained, unless you want to maintain it :)
