One more question: If I interpret the headers (of liblo) right, OSC is only
for passing messages, not for getting feedback? At least not getting feedback
without the "server" sending an own message back?
So if I want to split my mixer in a non-gui server and a gui and want the gui
to represent the actual server-state, the server has to send messages to the
gui-client?
Yes, thats right. OSC is fully asynchronus.
Which has the positive side effect of the gui beeing
updated if the
server-state is changed from another client. (Just imagine two clients on
different PC's controlling one mixer on a third PC. ;-) )
Right, this is a good thing, and most OSC linux apps seem to be allowing
it.
