[NEST Users] Re: C/C++ interface

Hello Xavier, Please have a look at https://github.com/nest/nest-simulator/blob/master/nestkernel/nest.h / .cpp . This is intended to provide a C/C++ API for nest. It is not complete, as far as i remember, and might be issue to backward incompatible changes. As an example, you can look at https://github.com/nest/nest-simulator/blob/master/nest/neststartup.cpp and see nest specific interactions are either implemented using functions from nest.h or from the individual managers via the https://github.com/nest/nest-simulator/blob/master/nestkernel/kernel_manage… accessable via nest.h). The other code deals with setting up the SLI engine and making modules available in the engine. On installation please have a look at <prefix>/lib/ and <prefix>/includes/ for necessary libs and headers. I think there was also something like `nest-config` script in <prefix>/bin that can help with getting the correct flags. I hope this is a headstart for you to try the API. I am very interested your experiences with it. Best, Tammo
