I am working on a revamping the audio output portion of Lilypond, and find myself in need of advice. The idea is to use a set of translators (performers) to convert the music into a time-ordered output-generic representation of the music, and to do the conversion into the final output format (MIDI files, for example) completely in scheme.
In the process, I have been using a variant on Audio_elements to build this representation. But I find myself wondering what that gains me. Is there any reason to use a set of C++ objects instead of straight Scheme to make this representation? More generically, when do you think objects should be in C++, and when in Scheme? If I stick with C++ objects (which I am loathe to do without a good reason), I will need to write a set of scheme accessor methods, regardless. -- Michael Welsh Duggan ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
