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: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 7 Private: No Submitted By: Katja (katjav) Assigned to: Miller Puckette (millerpuckette) Summary: change float to t_float in Pd 'extra'
Initial Comment: 0001-change-float-to-t_float-in-Pd-extra.patch converts instances of 'float' to 't_float' in all classes of vanilla Pd's 'extra'. Also, a few constants and literals are defined with more decimals, and some float suffixes removed. The patch is intended for Pd-043.1test5.
Type 't_float' is already used in most of pd core code. The changes in the 'extra' classes would make them compliant with the core in this sense.

Message: That answers my somewhat stupid question: your unittest patch will show the differences.

Message: The more precise constants and removal of float suffixes originate from my attempts to make Pd work in single and double precision. Maybe I should make a patch file without these changes for the moment, till I've reviewed them better.
Hans I do not understand your question 'how can we see what those differences are?' If you build a patched Pd-0.43.1test5 and run the tests which are also attached below, you'll see that the differences are in the analysis objects, notably bonk~.

Message: These changes would complete the t_float/t_sample clean up that happened with the core back in 0.42 (I think). I think it should be included in 0.43 if possible.
Katya, how can we see what those differences are?

Message: correction: the reference for the unit test patches was pd-0.43.0 vanilla release

Message: Accompanying the patch file, I've produced unit test patches. The reference was pd-043.1 vanilla release. The tests indicate slightly altered output for some of the classes, probably due to more precise constants and removal of float suffixes. See attached 'unittests-pdextras.zip'.
