Thanks for the comments guys.

Well, that's one of the reasons for open sourcing it. I'm no a Linux guy. But I know the issues very well, having worked on a lot of portable code before. And there's an existing platform driver for Linux already there, it's just very old and needs to be caught up.

OK, it's been updated.

I'll take another shot at it.

But on the ORB thing, wires got crossed there. There's no way I'd mention the ORB in the read me. That's very important but small piece of the overall thing. He was referring to some of the videos on my personal Youtube channel where I talk about some of the technologies I've created as part of this project. Some of them are related to the ORB.

Obviously, if you have never heard of an ORB before it might take a bit of effort to understand. But I can't really explain in-depth the foundations of technology concepts in a video. I can only give the basics and demonstrate how I've implemented that technology.

Beyond that, it would require a bit of study on the reader's part, as it does for pretty much all libraries of this type. Qt's 3D graphics docs probably don't include a fundamental tutorial on modern graphics architectures, right?

Well, to be fair, I didn't do it because I had to, I did it because I wanted to. General purpose object frameworks are what I enjoy doing.

The (very complex and large) automation system built on top of it was really just because I needed something practical to do with all of the general purpose code I'd developed. Though that then drove the development of a lot more general purpose code.

Sorry for the changed name, I closed the tab before before entering an e-mail and had forgotten the password...

Anyway, that'a not what CIDLib is. That's what CQC is. CQC is something that's BUILT on top of CIDLib.

If you need some sort of reference point for CIDLib, think Qt without the STL plus build tools or something like that.
