|Does anyone know of a way to dynamically destroy an object using the |"send pd-xxx" approach? Also, is there anyway to disconnect objects |dynamically?
did you find/make anything? i ve only managed to selectall,menu_cut and start over from scratch. ;)
the problem with both destroying and disconnecting is getting the reference to the object. you could either emulate a mouseclick, or work out how to access the stuff via canvas/glist directly,
i once tried and added a method to canvases that destroyed them. it did work, but only a few times (some 1000). after creating/destroying 1000s of obects pd was sure to crash. i only changed the pd code slightly (some lines) and therefore i hope that this (obviously something like a memory-leak) wasn't my fault. nevertheless i never found the real bug, but maybe miller found/fixed it already. i do think that this has to be done before we are able to continue in this direction, so who volunteers
