Hi G�nter,
I just opened the devel_0_37 branch on CVS. There are not too many differences between Millers version and this one.
great!
If an important feature is missing (some of Thomas threading stuff ??) please let us discuss it.
Well, at least it's important for me, because in my externals (and i think to recall also in Olaf's) the clock functions are used for inter-thread-communication. For this to work reliably they have to be thread-safe. I think that this is the only possibility for threads in PD to communicate with the real-time-system. I implemented the necessary things in devel_0_36, so i would like to know if anyone had problems with it (like timing hickups, deadlocks, clicks etc.). I use this version on a regular basis and haven't encountered problems lately. Therefore, it would be great if we could merge it into the devel_0_37 branch.
Ok, take a look whats there, would be cool if you can put it in yourself if something is missing. I personally never experienced any problems with it.
