hi list, hi Thomas,
I just stumbled upon what I believe is a bug in pool: sending a clrall-message to a pool object does not seem to entirely delete the contents of a dir - a getall afterwards yields "pool - getall type not supported!" error messages. This is actually not a big deal, since pools key outlet doesn't output anything in such a situation, but the error messages are annoying and increasing in number if one repeats the deletion and creation procedure. Another thing I'm working on (still...) is to load and save values from sub-directories with pool. I actually got this working once, but I cannot find the proof-of-concept-patch anymore - my bad. It would be great if someone could lead me on the right tracks here. I'll attach a patch the demonstrates the issue mentioned above and my failed attempts; I'm using pool 0.2.1. on pd 0.38.4.
thank you very much in advance, thoralf.

Hi Thoralf,

that's indeed a serious bug. I'm wondering how it could have survived for such a long time. I fixed it in cvs and updated the binaries in http://grrrr.org/ext/beta.

what about "chdir", "svdir" and "lddir" messages?
many thanks, Thomas
