Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: puredata Group: bugfix Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 6 Private: No Submitted By: Hans-Christoph Steiner (eighthave) Assigned to: Miller Puckette (millerpuckette) Summary: Mac OS X: portmidi UTF-8 device names rather than blank
Initial Comment: Right now, if there are extended unicode characters (i.e. Japanese) in the name of a MIDI device, portmidi just returns a blank string (""). In Mac OS X 10.7, the names of the default MIDI devices are now localized, so that means for all Mac OS X systems in Japanese, Chinese, Greek, Korean, etc. the MIDI names will all be blank. The attached patch fixes this by using the Mac OS X CFString API to fetch a full UTF-8 version of the name.
