Hi List,
within a custom external I try to load an abstraction called
"test.pd" and connect it internally. Unfortunately pd segfaults when
initializing the external with one of the the following calls:
new_anything(&pd_objectmaker, gensym("test"), 0, NULL);
new_anything(NULL, gensym("test"), 0, NULL);
I'm pretty sure this used to work some versions ago and assume
something in the process of creating objects has changed.
Can someone shed a light on this?
In addition I used to assign a pointer to the newly created object by
using the global "newest" pointer right after creating it. I remember
a remark in the sources stating that this might change in the
future. Is this method still valid or is there another way to get a
pointer to newly created objects within an external?
