improve clam general infrastructure

• enhance network flow-control (we are currently working on it). flow-control is a plugable entity in charge of scheduling processing execution. not an obvious thing to do since clam processing allow any port (buffer) size.

• dynamically load processings (like as if they where just typical plugins)

improve clam plugins-host infrastructure

• better organization (using meta-data) of NetworkEditor processing-tree. the processing-tree includes all the loadable plugins [work in progress: andreas]

• extend current factory in order to have homogeneous plugin instantiation interface [work in progress: andreas]

new plugins-hosts

• host ladspa in mac (we should be ready for that)
• host ladspa in windows (see if someone have already compiled ladspas as dlls)
• host lv2 [andreas]
  • osc extension
  • midi extension
  • gui extension?
• vst
• au

embedded networks

• clam networks (xml files) seen as plugins. Integrated in the processing tree.
• publish not only audio-ports but any-type ports (and controls, of course)
• Make NetworkEditor able to edit sub-networks

improve plugins creation infrastructure

• refactor network-player-back-ends (such as jack, portaudio, ladpsa) classes to avoid code repetition. now we have a subclass for each back-end.
  • david thinks the could would be cleaner and more usable having a single network-player class with plugable back-ends.
  • the refactoring include better class naming and move sources at an appropriate dir.

• better SConstruct for compiling network-players into plugins (.dll, .so)
  • improve the way to specify and install the clamnetwork file

• allow plugin creation from NetworkEditor (choose plugin architecture, etc)

new plugins architectures

• vst (license issue)
• generate vsts with clam-prototyped gui [work in progress: pol]
• vst for mac
• dssi with clam-prototyped gui
• others?

DONE

• experimental ladspa host in linux
• generation of ladspa plugins under linux (needs some refactor)
• generation of non-gui vst under windows (needs some refactor)
