more difficulties in IDL - C++ combination [message #35352] Fri, 06 June 2003 02:59

Hi again,

Im starting to know more about IDL, but then Ive been thinking in the
main architecture of the complex program I have to implement and I need
pipes between IDL and C++. In the top of the software and the only thing
the scientists (astrophysics) will see will be a GUI (widget in IDL)
made preliminarily in IDL and able to perform many scientific functions.
This IDL process will be using the pipes to hear from C and to send
commands, this means that once the C program is launched from IDL, IDL
should continue iterating between pipes and waiting also for user
requirements.

I dont know if I made myself clear, does anybody know if this is
feasible using IDL - C combination?? does IDL get halted when the C
function is launched?? how does it work?

In case it is not possible, maybe a solution is to run both programs
independently and IDL would connect with the program in C++ (dont know
how) iteratively while running the widget.

Any suggestions? Im putting it difficult eh?

Thanks in advance, its very comforting to have a place where you can
send your problems and get useful ideas from it.

Juan Luis
