| Meanwhile, we suggest to favor cppbind over the old, low-level, approach, it isn't only much more elegant, but also saves you tons of typing, too - and will do certain error-checking automatically that you would otherwise have to implement manually. | | Meanwhile, we suggest to favor cppbind over the old, low-level, approach, it isn't only much more elegant, but also saves you tons of typing, too - and will do certain error-checking automatically that you would otherwise have to implement manually. |

| After working through this article, some of the more useful things to play with it the beginning, would be exposing additional SG/FG classes to Nasal space, such as for example:
| | == Worthwhile Targets == |
| * SGPath {{Progressbar|70}} (Tom is currently working on this)
| | {{Template:Mentored Volunteer Effort |
| * the loglist/SG_LOG() logging buffer machinery [http://forum.flightgear.org/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=21480&p=195517#p195517]
| | |mentors= Hooray (get in touch to learn more) |
| * FGProtocol, to implement I/O protocols via Nasal [http://forum.flightgear.org/viewtopic.php?f=30&t=21346&p=194458&hilit=fginterface#p194456] [http://forum.flightgear.org/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=21561&p=196141#p196141]
| | |skills=[[Building Flightgear]], [[Developing using CMake]], [[Programming Resources#Programming_-_Background_knowledge|C++]], some [[Nasal]] }} |
| * the SGSubsystem interface to register scripted SGSubsystems
| |
| * the flight recorder system (replay buffers)
| |
| * the autopilot system [http://forum.flightgear.org/viewtopic.php?p=149376#p149376] [http://forum.flightgear.org/viewtopic.php?f=66&t=21217&hilit=cppbind#p193357] [http://www.mail-archive.com/flightgear-devel@lists.sourceforge.net/msg38172.html] (there are certain [[How the Nasal GC works|Nasal GC issues]], so that we ask people not to implement FDM-coupled Nasal code like autopilots)
| |
| * exposing the sound manager, so that scripts can directly play audio files [http://www.mail-archive.com/flightgear-devel@lists.sourceforge.net/msg18550.html]
| |
| * exposing the random buildings system [http://forum.flightgear.org/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=21131&p=192489&hilit=cppbind#p192489]
| |
| * There's also a pending feature request ({{Issue|619}}) to implement USB-HID support [http://forum.flightgear.org/viewtopic.php?f=24&t=20159&p=185021&hilit=cppbind#p185021].
| |
| * [[Howto:Using OpenCL in FlightGear]]
| |
| * [[Developing with HLA|Nasal/HLA bindings]], so that we can run certain scripts as HLA federates outside the fgfs process space (such as bombable or local weather)

| For more technical Nasal questions (C API, internals etc), you'll probably want to refer to Philosopher, TheTom, Zakalawe or Hooray on the forum - TheTom and Zakalawe can also provide help on using cppbind, having both used it extensively during the last months.
