As of 03/2013, this article should be considered | As of 03/2013, this article should be considered deprecated, we have [[Nasal/CppBind]], a new C++-based API for exposing C/C++ functions/data structures to Nasal and vice versa in {{simgear file|simgear/nasal/cppbind}}. Usually, there should be no need to use the bare Nasal APIs anymore for exposing functions/data to Nasal or Nasal-space types to C++, except for people working on the '''cppbind''' framework itself. | ||
The cppbind framework is much more generic and high level than the bare APIs documented here, it includes unit testing support and makes use of modern C++ features like templates and STL support, including SimGear specific types like SGPath/SGGeod etc, its overhead is fairly small (not just performance, but also LoC to create new bindings). | The cppbind framework is much more generic and high level than the bare APIs documented here, it includes unit testing support and makes use of modern C++ features like templates and STL support, including SimGear specific types like SGPath/SGGeod etc, its overhead is fairly small (not just performance, but also LoC to create new bindings). | ||
