hi folks,
still not roger with declare. first, I realized, that the helpfile for declare only exists in pd 0.41. but even with that help, I think declare is broken (at least on osx.) I tested it on 0.40.3 (extended) and on 0.41-2 (vanilla).
is [import] really the same as [declare -lib]? (broken too, see bugreport) and [classpath] also does not really add anything. is it really the same as [declare -stdpath]? are both objects (import and classpath) also always loaded/and saved first as declare? [[btw. can't we use that method to have all delread~ saved and loaded at the beginning of a patch?]]
a bang message into [import moocow] gives print: symbol ..//Applications/Pd-0.40.3-extended-20080222.app/Contents/Resources/Scripts/../extra/moocow which has some strange characters in the beginning of the string. maybe that is the problem?
I also wonder how the word "library" is defined in this context. is "flatspace" for example a library? [declare -lib flatspace] would this "load" all external object classes in that folder? or is there a flatspace meta lib file?
I also don't understand why many objects (import itself for example) are in different locations at the same time... but that is another question.
best, thanks for reading, marius.
