Re: [LAU] OSC howto

Also "oscdump", a server that just echoes incoming OSC requests to stdout. A very useful pair. The way I implemented learning is to add a default handler to my created OSC server, take the next incoming message, pick the "path" out of it, and then add a handler for THAT in place of the default. It's possible to get in a race if you are trying to learn with lots of OSC data flying around but that's the user's issue :) I think OSC was designed with the idea that the servers would define the "name space" of paths and you would build a client map to send controls to the proper destination. It looks more like it's really working the other direction, where the clients/controllers define the paths they are going to send, and the server is responsible for learning the mappings.
