Description

This AI interface is written in C++ and allows spring to load AIs written in C and C++. Thes AIs may be compiled with any compiler, as long as they export some C functions in the correct way (see {spring_source}/AI/Skirmish/NullAI/AIExport.h for reference).

If you plan to write your own AI interface library, it is recommended to use this one as a template, or at least for reference ({spring_source}/AI/Interfaces/C/).
