deken object list
by Marco Matteo Markidis 03 Jul '16

03 Jul '16

Dear all, in these days several guys complaint with me about the difficulty of finding one particular external in the sea called Deken. The main problem is that people have patches on Extended and the difficult task is to switch on Vanilla + Deken. So, the most trivial solution that comes to my mind is to create a Latex template where put for each library several infos like the name of the library, the maintainer, the version, and the list of objs maybe with same extra informations. My idea is to provide a general latex template and people can help this project downloading the template and then start to put all informations. However, the main point is: it si useful? I mean Floss[1] provides something similar, and before to start this project I was just wondering about its concrete helpfulness. Maybe something similar is present and simply I don't know about it. In these case, it could be an idea to upload it on Deken and when people just press "enter" or some typos Deken can suggest to download this pdf. Finally, an object list can be useful to understand who is maintaining what and what is actually not maintained. Probably it's only a boring idea. Let me know. Best regards.

[pure-data:patches] #578 fix for crash in canvas_initbang() when loading malformed patch files

--- ** [patches:#578] fix for crash in canvas_initbang() when loading malformed patch files** **Status:** open **Group:** bugfix **Labels:** crash **Created:** Sat Jun 25, 2016 08:33 PM UTC by Claude Heiland-Allen **Last Updated:** Sat Jun 25, 2016 08:33 PM UTC **Owner:** Miller Puckette **Attachments:** - [0001-fix-canvas_initbang-crash-when-loading-bad-patch-fil.patch](https://so… (1.6 kB; text/x-patch) Pd crashes in canvas_initbang() if you load a file that isn't really a patch, because binbuf_evalfile() assumes the file is a regular patch that created a canvas during evaluation. The fix is to check that the #X symbol is really bound to a canvas before calling canvas_initbang() on its thing. For an example of the crash: echo oops > oops.pd pd oops.pd With the attached patch Pd no longer crashes and instead prints "oops: no such object". --- Sent from sourceforge.net because pd-dev(a)lists.iem.at is subscribed to https://sourceforge.net/p/pure-data/patches/ To unsubscribe from further messages, a project admin can change settings at https://sourceforge.net/p/pure-data/admin/patches/options.

clone doesn't respect [declare] like a direct abstraction instance does
by Alex 23 Jun '16

23 Jun '16

Sorry for the flood of messages, been playing with clone a bunch, again with a wrapper I'm working on. Again I'm on 0.47-1 64-bit Mac OS. If i use [declare -path subdir] in a patch and inside that patch also create [clone -x absname 10] where absname.pd is in my subdir, I have no problems. If I instead have an abstraction that takes an argument to create a clone [clone $1 2], i have no problems if i create the abstraction like [parentAbstraction absname] where absname is in subdir/absname.pd But.. if i do [clone -x parentAbstraction 10 absname] in my top patch with the declare I get a message: "clone $1 2... could not create" Shouldn't [clone absname] work the same as far as load paths as [absname] ? I've attached a zip file that shows the problem, test.pd is the file to run. -Alex

clone doesn't take vis message on left inlet when abstraction has signal for left inlet
by Alex 23 Jun '16

23 Jun '16

I'm on pd-0.47-1 binary downloaded from UCSD [mac 64-bit]. I've created a clone of an abstraction that has the left inlet as a signal inlet.. from the docs I'd expect I can send a |vis 5 1( message to that inlet and display the patch but I can't. If I create another inlet, to the right of that inlet, which is a control inlet, I can send the vis message to that and my instance does pop up but it does seem to me that the |vis( message should always go into the left inlet to keep things consistent? I attached an example, leftsig_test.pd is the patch to open. BTW, this clone stuff is really making me wish we could have abstractions that take both a signal and control info on a single inlet [like dac and some other tilde objects].. I've created a wrapper around clone to play with cascading abstractions and it would be nice if I could have my wrapper operate the same as I'm assuming clone should? I know there was discussion before.. maybe [inlet~] could actually have 2 outlets, a signal outlet and a control outlet? -Alex

jack related pull requests on github
by Alex 20 Jun '16

20 Jun '16

Hey Miller, I'm not sure if you follow the github pullrequests so I figured I'd write you an email as well as posting. I have 2 jack related pull requests up, both of which are really useful for me and I figure would be for others. One of them lets you set the name of pd's jack client and the other disables the automatic connections to the jack graph. This all came about because I wanted to run multiple instances of PD with unique jack client names to do processing of phone calls with asterisk. The automatic connections become tiresome if they're never what you want [though in the common case, they are.. just not this one]. Anyways, here they are: set a custom name for the pd jack client: https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/pull/19 disable automatic connections to the jack graph: https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/pull/20 -Alex

[pure-data:bugs] #1251 nbx and nan
by Ticket 1251 19 Jun '16

19 Jun '16

--- ** [bugs:#1251] nbx and nan** **Status:** open **Group:** v0.47 **Labels:** nbx **Created:** Sun Jun 19, 2016 05:37 PM UTC by Anonymous **Last Updated:** Sun Jun 19, 2016 05:37 PM UTC **Owner:** Miller Puckette I see the 'nan' issue is solved in the atom box, but there's still a similar issue with [nbx]. The number2 GUI [nbx] has the same bug of not displaying "nan" - but it used to be able to do it before (so it's a bug again). One thing is that while the atom box could still print "nan" from its output even when it was buggy, the issue with number box is that it outputs the last value, so it may be a bit more complicated than just having it displaying it. tested on pd 0.47-1 --- Sent from sourceforge.net because pd-dev(a)lists.iem.at is subscribed to https://sourceforge.net/p/pure-data/bugs/ To unsubscribe from further messages, a project admin can change settings at https://sourceforge.net/p/pure-data/admin/bugs/options.

problem with PA and Jack on OS X
by Marco Matteo Markidis 14 Jun '16

14 Jun '16

Dear list, Sunday I had a gig in Poland. After connect all cables, mixer and sound card I started my Pd patch without problems. When I switched on the DSP Pd frozen and I didn't understand really what happens. After a while, I started the system monitor and I saw that in calling PA it stops with an error. I tried to start also Pd with Jack and in this case Jack didn't start properly giving me an visible error message. So I rebooted and magically PA starts. I'm sending you this email just to say that can be a good idea in this case to report an error message very visible on Pd parent or something like this, in order to understand that it is a PA error and probably an error to access to sound card or something like this. I'm sorry to cannot report a complete log message, but I remember that Pd stops at pa_send_dacs function in s_audio_pa.c file. I hope you can understand that in a real live situation with Wayne Horvitz waiting that you finish your soundcheck it's not a proper occasion to get log message file and stuff like this. Best regards and sorry if this mail can be off topic. Marco Matteo Markidis
