I thought the two were exactly the same from the standpoint of an external - I have no idea why the argument wouldn't show up in vanilla.

Hi all,
Is there any reason why passing a symbol arg to determine the amount of outlets on object creation would work in extended but not in vanilla? Both compile and create successfully but for whatever reason the symbol arg of my object has no effect on the number of outlets in vanilla. I’m using sprintf to parse and identify symbols passed from the pd patch; would that cause any issues?
All the best,
Ricky

It's fine just to store the pointer to the t_symbol - the contents won't be changed or relocated.

O.K., if I am passing a list of symbols and floats, is it best practice to store a symbol in a char array for future use? I’m trying to post the args to the console.
