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: pd-extended Group: v0.42 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Matteo Sisti Sette (sistisette) Assigned to: Hans-Christoph Steiner (eighthave) Summary: comport hangs Pd and eats 100% CPU when port disconnected
Initial Comment: Steps to reproduce:
1) Connect a serial over USB device, such as an Arduino 2) Create a [comport] and send it the appropriate "open" message to connect to the device:
[open N( | [comport]
3) When the connection is established, unplug the USB device.
Pd will start eating 100% CPU and will hang. You won't even be able to close it, you have to kill the process.
This happens systematically here.
Pd Extended 0.42.5, Ununtu 10.04
I know you're not supposed to unplug a com port without closing, but Pd shouldn't hang.
