[ODE] Objective-C++

[Shamyl Zakariya]

I experienced this as well. 'id' is an Objective-C keyword, so 
basically, you have to *hide* ODE from your Cocoa code completely.

The way I did this was to make a C++ simulation class which completely 
encapsulates ODE, and provides accessor methods to set params and 
otherwise do all the work behaind the scenes. Of course, this means you 
can't let your Objective-C/Objective-C++ code see anything like a 
dGeomID or a dReal and so on, but if you design a wrapper object model, 
and typedef your own compatible vector/scalar etc types you can get 
away with it.

it works for me, but YMMV.
