Development / SDK

[Lazybones]

Just a question.. version 2 is listed as having :

TeamSpeak Client/Server SDK's, for including in your games/applications

Has the TeamSpeak team considered releasing a compiled VCL or CLX component for Delphi / Kylix developers to use?

This would still protect your source but let other devopers build TeamSpeak support directly into thier applications or make thier own clients.

Also with the SDK's is thier any plans to add plugin support of some sort to the Clients?

hi,

we do dll's/so's, so all programmers can use it.

I'd really like to see some .so's for Linux come out. I even believe that the TeamSpeak developers shouldn't spend that much time on a GUI for it. If done right, there should be a command-line client lib, which could be wrapped by a gui program. There will be some creating KDE wrappers, some creating GTK wrappers, etc... I personally would like to create a gkrellm plugin wrapper for TeamSpeak.

Anyhow, I guess my point is that all you developers, don't stress on the gui and delay deployment because of it. You will be just fine with some libraries. I suppose you could throw in some nice examples too if ya wanted.

Well, I'm anxiously awaiting it Linux release, let me know if I can assist in any manner.

Oh yeah, one more thing. I don't know if you'll be releasing the source code or not, but regardless. It probably wouldn't be too hard to cross-compile the library for different platforms. I am planning on getting a Sharp Zaurus soon. I am in great need of a portable/networkable pc and that would fit the bill nicely. If it had a TeamSpeak library and a QT wrapper, I'd be able to initiate voice chat from any location in my company to any other location in my company.

Just another thought. Heh, with a little wireless networking and TeamSpeak, cell phones could become pretty obsolete. I could actually run the server at home, and use my mobile client to contact my family, no phone calls, password protected, heck, maybe even encrypted (via ssh forwarding?).
