I will soon be developing a gstreamer replacement for a VLC application.
I have been a C++ programmer for over 20 years, working with gstreamer
for the last 2. I could almost build the code (OK, I would have to
research the plugins) in my sleep. But there is this new thing (not
really, but somewhat) called Python that works with gstreamer. The
application that I will develop is stand-alone in the sense that it is
invoked from a different application. What are the relative merits of
using Python vs. C++? Currently, no one in our shop does Python so this
would be the first app. I can't say if it would ever be the only app.
Thank you for different opinions. Chuck Crisler
