A while back, I got a Lego NXT for Christmas, and now I would like to program it in C++.
I have looked around, here and other places, and could not find a cross-platform, open source, OOP C++ library that "felt right", including lestat and nxtOSEK.
So, I have decided that unless I can find one I do like, then it would be a great learning experience for me to write my own library.
I have done a little research, and decided it would be easiest to communicate with it over bluetooth, rather than compiling my programs to the NXT machine code.
I would also like this to be done in OOP style, meaning the NXT brick, motors, sensors, etc would exist as objects.
So, my question is: what do I need to know before embarking on this? where can I get good references (besides here, and specific to the NXT)? what are other decent "basic" libraries* for things like bluetooth communication?
*I am all for using boost and the STL, if necessary, by the way.
Alternatively, I believe in not reinventing the wheel if I don't have to, so if there is a decent C++ OOP bluetooth-communicating NXT library out there, let me know!
Thanks!
