Hi, I am the author of FLOPC++. I dont think your characterization of FLOPC++ 
below is fully correct.

The goal of FLOPC++ is to be as easy (high level) to use as algebraic 
modelling languages, BUT at the same time to be useful to be included in 
applications. 

Best regards,
                             Tim Hultberg
