RtOsc - Realtime safe OSC Messaging
===================================

image::https://travis-ci.org/fundamental/rtosc.svg?branch=master[alt="Build status", link="https://travis-ci.org/fundamental/rtosc"]

A realtime safe library for handling OSC messages.
This library is influenced by liblo and libmapper.

Project Goals
-------------

* Provide a simple means of handling OSC messages within an application
* Provide a flexible method of dispatching OSC messages payloads
* Create a C library with C++ wrappers for ease of use
* Allow legacy code to have readable RT safe messaging added on
* Keep networking outside of project scope

Why?
----

Well if an application is going to receive nice serialized messages in the OSC format,
then it would be nice if these messages could be dispatched within a realtime
thread.
This is not possible with any observed C OSC implementation, so this is an
attempt to alleviate this issue without creating an entirely hideous API.

Status
------

- OSC 1.0 spec consistent implementation of all message types, and bundles
- Lightly tested liblo based implementation verification
- Working C++ based dispatch system
- C++ Serialization System
- C++ Syntax Sugar

Documentation
-------------

- To see the guide, you can use `asciidoctor Guide.adoc` in the doc directory
- To build doxygen docs, use `make rtosc-doc` in your build directory

Todo
----

- Increase test coverage over C++ layer
- Provide standard compliant path/pattern matching algorithms
