SIMPLE Object Based Framework

[smi38]

In France, everybody said "state machine" when talking about QDMH... it's a misnomer. But you're right.

Hum... I re-read the posts... I'm so sorry for my english

Hi Sebastian,

Yes I already used that 2 years ago during AE summit in Austin. It is a good architecture based on AMC reference library. The visual distinction between the top Level VI parts makes it easy to understand and scale and the use of AMC makes it also valuable since you can easliy extend your application for network communication for exemple as the AMC provide that kind of functionality natively.

While I don't necessarilly agree that a simple LVOOP QMH exists or is possible the Actor Framework DOES exist and is gaining adoption.

Do I use it?  No but, I would if it met my needs like nothing else and my projects do not typically require its features.

I'm quite fond of the LapDog Messenging library as a simple OO-based framework.  However I'm not sure it's still being developed, nor widely used, but it's probably worth a look.

I don't know if it would make sense, but I think AF could be more palatable if it were divided in two. You can implement a command pattern type design without having a bunch of parallel reentrant actors, and people have been doing that for ages without oop. You can also implement a highly parallel message-based communication framework without using objects at all.  The fact that its both in one makes it a bit tougher to understand.
