by Hans-Christoph Steiner 27 Nov '05

27 Nov '05

Its mostly done and now, you can type "make install" and get basically all of abstractions, doc, extensions, externals, pd, etc. build and installed into one directory. With Mac OS X and Windows, you can then package it up with one more step. It would be good to get some There is even some documentation: http://puredata.org/docs/developer/build There is also some useful stuff here, like how to build on various platforms: http://puredata.org/docs/developer .hc ________________________________________________________________________ ____ "I have the audacity to believe that peoples everywhere can have three meals a day for their bodies, education and culture for their minds, and dignity, equality and freedom for their spirits." - Martin Luther King, Jr.

Pd-0.38.4-extended-RC3.app Released
by Hans-Christoph Steiner 21 Nov '05

21 Nov '05

Finally, I released another Pd-extended, but this one is quite different. Its based on the cross-platform, cross-package build system. Soon, I shall be releasing a Windows and Linux build based on this as well. http://at.or.at/hans/pd/installers-0.38.4-extendedRC3.html Lots of changes, got the first complete(-ish) build with the new extended build system. I left as much of the old functionality in place as possible, definitely were it was being used. But there are some changes that break backwards compatibility, thought they should be noticed by few, and be easy to fix going forward. Some highlights: * centralized patch system (packages/patches with targets patch_pd and unpatch_pd) * libdir format: basically a libdir is a directory that has both the objects and the help files together in one folder. It can be added using -lib or the StartUp preferences, or you can access them via geiger namespaces, i.e. [mylibrary/myobject]. * special characters allow in setup function/file names for objects. This makes objects like [||~] possible without having to be in a library. Now they can be either .pd files or individual .pd_darwin files (thanks IOhannes for the patch). .hc ________________________________________________________________________ ____ http://at.or.at/hans/

sndfiler - threaded soundfiler
by Georg Holzmann 20 Nov '05

20 Nov '05

Hallo! a threaded soundfiler for PD using libsndfile. by Tim Blechmann for pd_devel - also adapted now to have a threaded resize and to work with main pd. binaries+source here: http://grh.mur.at/software/sndfiler.html or in cvs ... LG Georg PS: README file: REQUIREMENTS: - pd >= 0.39 - libsndfile - for main PD you will also need threadlib: http://grh.mur.at/software/threadlib.html FEATURES: - threaded reading of multichannel soundfiles into arrays - threaded resize of arrays For more information look at the help patch ! See the file INSTALL for installation instructions.

threadlib
by Georg Holzmann 20 Nov '05

20 Nov '05

Hallo! threadlib is a library for threaded patching and threaded PD externals heavily based on pd_devel code by Tim Blechmann (his detach/join for pd_devel) you can get it there (also binaries): http://grh.mur.at/software/threadlib.html or in cvs ... LG Georg PS: README file: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ PD objects for threaded patching: - detach run part of the patch in a helper thread - join synchronize messages to pd's main thread - sleep blocks the system for a specific time - threadedsf modified threaded soundfiler from pd_devel_0.38 WARNING: these objects (especially detach/join) are very experimental and may crash your patches if you use them in the wrong way, because some externals/internals are not threadsafe! Features for PD external programmers: - lockfree FIFO from pd_devel - callback system like in pd_devel: Instead of the idle callbacks, which are not really useable in current main pd, it uses clock callbacks - USAGE: you have to link your externals against threadlib (see sndfiler as an example) - ADVANTAGES: so it's possible to write threaded externals for main and devel pd with the same source code (using the lockfree FIFO and sys_callback) Many thanks to Tim Blechmann for his code and help! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ detach: Detach is working on control objects only, creates a helper thread and runs all functions of the following objects in this helper thread. If a message from that thread reaches a join object a callback for running the outlet function will be placed in the scheduler and run in the next scheduler loop - so you can synchronize the message with pd's main thread again. Detach is useful if you have a control operation that would be too CPU-intensive and would disturb dsp. join: The message to the inlet will be sent to the outlet during the next clock callback of the scheduler. It doesn't matter, which thread the message was coming from. Messages from the main pd thread will be rescheduled. Join can be used everywhere, where a message has to be rescheduled, this is also useful to place behind any threaded external calling the outlet functions from the helper thread, to make sure the following messages are being run in the main pd thread. !!! WARNING: !!! detach/join provide the possibility of threaded patching. beware of the risks: - not every pd object is thread-safe (if unsure, look at the source code or ask at the pd-list or me) - pd is not completely thread-safe itself - everything that is triggered by the detached message will be detached. don't mix threaded and non-threaded message paths unless you know what you are doing. use the join external to synchronize with the main pd thread!!!! - if detach/join crashes pd during a performance, don't complain ... - both detach and join have an overhead ... so only use them, if you really need threaded patching, e.g. have a subpatch that has to run for quite some time and would interrupt audio or something else
