Hey all, I've been fixing quite a lot of bugs in preparation of making
the Pd- extended 0.40.3 release. It's getting pretty much
ready, so please test it heavily so we can find any outstanding
bugs! Jack just pointed out that pdp on Mac OS X/PowerPC is having
problems loading videos, and is crashing, so I am working on
that now. .hchi Hans
i have been happily working with pd-0.40-extended (20080222) for
quite a while. there are some issues though.Pd-0.40.3-extended-20080504-macosx104-i386 on a osx 10.5.2
- at the moment if one modifies the preferences of i.e. vanilla
pd the pd-extended looses all path and startup preferences (this
is on osx i don't know about win or linux).i would like to propose that ~/Library/Preferences/ org.puredata.pd.plist will be completely ignored by pd-extended.
instead only the org.puredata.pd.plist inside the pd-extended app
should be used. this way one could have different working setups. what do you think?I think people want to save preferences for Pd-extended too. The
current situation isn't great, that's true. If people want
separate preferences, that might be a possibility in a future Pd- extended release.ah i forgot that the file inside the app is not save-able
- as i reported earlier
http://lists.puredata.info/pipermail/pd-list/2008-01/058787.html some objects can't create. i think that all of them are know
problems. for me not be able to use <~ and >~ is _most_ annoying
(hexloader-something?). i know there are workarounds with expr. not including iem-t3 lib is a loss but i can live without it.
thou it makes around 5 nice netpd patches not usable anymore.You can now file bug reports from the Help menu in Pd-extended.
Please file a bug report for this.i wrote a bug report for iem_t3
i'm not sure about the hexloader. i found this: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php? func=detail&aid=1637460&group_id=55736&atid=478070 should i file a new bug report?
hexloader should be included in tomorrow's build. Please test it.
The t3 stuff should be in today's build.

- help files
most help files worked (could create) but some:
iemmatrix/matrix-help.pd mtx ... couldn't create
mrpeach/packOSC-help.pd packOSC ... couldn't create
sssad/sssad-help.pd sssad key ... couldn't create libdir_loader: added sssad to the canvas-local path sssad key ... couldn't create
i wondered why some help files worked and some not. i thought it
was done by org.puredata.pd.plist settings. so i added sssad <key>loadlib40</key> <string>sssad</string> restarted pd, but the help files still couldn't create.please file bug reports for each of these.
done
- name clash
[curve] Gem vs. mapping probably some more
Yeah, that's been around a lot time.
what are the goals? which externals are supposed to work on
default? are that the ones in the plist? maybe we should focus on
them (before i start to open all help files :) )The goal is to fine bugs and fix them :). Some of the bigger well- known problems will have to wait until the next release. The
externals in the plist should work without a namespace prefix.
All included externals should work.uhm . now i filed bug reports for helpfiles of externals that are
not on the plist. but they work with namespace prefix (except iem_t3)
thanks for all your work and thanks to all the other devs too!
Thanks for your bug reports and your work with Pd! .hc
