I use directors all the time in CsoundVST and never had a problem. I think we just need to control the symbolic names. Directors are the only way that I know of to automatically implement virtual classes from C/C++ to a SWIG-wrapped language. 

The alternative, I suppose, would be to write 2 layer callbacks by hand. Each callback class would be C on the bottom half and Python or Java on the top half. Then in Python or Java, one could inherit from the top half. This is essentially what the directors are doing (with the addition that the director also inherits from the bottom half in C++, so that all of the function dispatching is completely automatic).

Did you try different module names (psnd for Python csnd, jsnd for Java csnd, etc.)?

Regards,
Mike

Yes, I did. However, perhaps some other solution than using directors
may be preferred, as the SWIG documentation does mention that it is
experimental.
