I expected a generic input port ( vector<char> ) for the messages, but 
that would require (as far i understood) to be written from a single 
component which provides all the interfaces for each robot that uses 
NDLComm.

I think Jakobs proposal is more flexible, and extensible.
This way, less glue code to get the robot into the simulation is required.

Best, Steffen
