API Language:
Maybe the definitive API should not be written in code but in English
(+other human languages!). A sample implementation on the host side and
the plugin side could be provided as part of the SDK, initially in ANSI
C but later with Delphi and C++ versions (or wrappers). If the API
documentation was carefully written in a platform neutral way it should
be clear for developers using any language/compiler combination how it
works at a fundamental level.
For example:
********************************** Function Name: FunctionExample Parameters: 32-bit IEEE Float "Parameter1" Return Values: 32-bit IEEE Float "Result" Notes: blah blah **********************************
