pd_devel + threaded soundfiler + mayer fft = crash with pvoc.pd pd_devel + "standard" soundfiler + mayer fft = no sound (more less) in
pvoc.pd, _no_crash_ pd_devel + threaded/"normal" soundfiler + fftw = _no_crash_ but weird sound in pvoc.pd
i just checked my mail archive ... thomas grill told me about this back in november ... i suppose, the dsp chain will be recompiled in the helper thread, thus the fftw setup routines will be run, which are not threadsafe (this is a guess)...
i'm about 99.99% sure, that this can be solved, if the arrays will be redesigned properly...
this wouldn't be a big problem, but i won't do it, since i would do it one way, miller would do it differently for 0.43 or so, which would result in 2 incompatible versions of pd.
at the moment devel_'s changes could still be merged with head ... but the more changes there are, the more difficult it gets. and at one point we have a fork :-(
this is something that really should be avoided.
on the wiki page for irc developer meeting, a threadsafe handling of arrays is one of the point, i've added...
cheers ... tim
