[OSC_dev] Good C++ libraries ?

EasyOSC is what we call in the Windows world a "dynamic link
library" ("shared lib" in Linux parlance). Unlike some other
implementations, it's not statically linked, and therefore does not
become part of your application.
You can link to GPL'ed dynamic/shared libraries from commercial
software without needing to release your commercial source, for
example how you typically link to Linux's GNU-based C lib. What
you can't do is modify the library source itself, and re-release it
binary-only.
But I don't see why you'd need to modify EasyOSC itself with
additional proprietary code. OSC is a simple enough protocol, and
EasyOSC already has an architecture that lets the app do all the
practical work.
