Hi,
I've been learning how to program externals for pd for some time now. However, I've been wondering if there is a way to acquire the block size inside the external e.g. inside my_obj_new()?
I'm using fftw, and I need to know the block size to allocate memory and to create the plans for the transforms. Of course I could hard code the frame size, or perhaps have it as a parameter. Still it would make things so much more flexible if I could use the existing block size.
Thanks for any help!
