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: puredata Group: v0.40.0 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Jamie Bullock (postlude) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: [namecanvas $1] crashes Pd when addressed by parent
Initial Comment: If an abstraction containing [namecanvas $1] is instantiated with a first argument e.g. foo, and the message [;foo msg bar( is sent from the parent, Pd crashes.
Side note: I understood [namecanvas] to be depracated, but there seems to be some desire amongst users and devs for this not to be the case.

Okay, Pd shouldn't crash, but the message you send is not correctly formatted. You forgot to add coordinates: Your message should look like this: [;foo 10 20 msg bar(
Pd doesn't crash with this message.
Ciao

Actually, your message isn't formatted correctly either; it should be [;foo msg 10 20 bar( :-/
But of course Pd shouldn't crash, but it turns out that the crashing is due to the incorrectly formatted message, and not the use of $ variables in [namecanvas]. I'll change the bug report.
