Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Hans-Christoph Steiner (eighthave) Assigned to: IOhannes m zmölnig (zmoelnig) Summary: hex loader doesn't work with namespace prefixes

Initial Comment:

When using a hex loader name like 0x3c0x7e.pd for [<~], you can't use namespace prefixes since the / is only interpreted as a hex value 0x2f.

For example, [zexy/<~] tries to load only zexy0x2f0x3c0x7e.pd, and therefore fails.

An additional search path should be added after this one where the / is used literally without being translated into a hex code, then it would look for zexy/0x3c0x7e.pd

i just updated the hexloader external (which replaces the hexloader-code in main pd) to do some special handling of "/". (the revised hexloader-external is now also able to load abstractions!)

i have tested it under linux and os-x 10.4 (i think) with pd-0.41(os-x) and pd-0.40 (linux); could you please confirm and eventually close this bug?

how exactly do you think this should happen? e.g. how should [path//] be resolved? "path0x2f0x2f.pd", "path/0x2f.pd", "path0x2f/.pd" or "path//.pd"?

once there is a precise idea on how the problem should be solved, i can go and implement it.

btw, i changed the category to "externals" since the hexloader is no longer part of pd itself
