Would it be possible to provide an alternative implementation for the same API as a built-in using this? So for example, an alternate Jack or ALSA implementation in a loadable module?
(iirc) the current implementation allows us to overwrite/override a given backend by simply registering another backend of the same name. so es, you could provide a bug-fixed jack-implementation without touching the pd-code.
and of course, you could provide 3 different jack implementations (e.g. with different features sets) at the same time, by just using different API-names.
This sounds excellent. I'd like to include this in Pd-extended 0.44. Did you have a chance to look at the issue I reported in this thread where portaudio doesn't work on OSX?
