Detailed Description

Bridge Library for Pro Pinball

Pro Pinball uses Boost's message queue for sending feedback data to a separate process. Pro Pinball can launch a custom process for supporting third party modules such as DOF by using the f<executable> option when launching the game.

From Adrian's post:

1.2.1 also added support for a 'feedback' slave. This is sent a message approximately 60 times per second containing the current intensity of each flasher (0.0 off, 1.0 maximum brightness), the on/off state of each solenoid, and the on/off state of the start, fire and magnosave button lights (not displayed in the game itself, though used to show/hide buttons in the mobile version). These should be suitable for driving real hardware via e.g. an Ledwiz. The game does not provide a feedback slave, but the source package contains code and an executable for a dummy slave that just prints out state changes to the console. The feedback slave is started by adding the command line option f followed by the executable name, e.g. 'fFeedbackSlave'.

The goal of this bridge is to provide a DLL which can be easily used by any language able to import COM libraries.
