Hi list,
I am trying to make a tabwrite2~ external by copying the tabwrite~ section of d_array.c into its own tabwrite2~.c file.
The external compiles fine without errors, but the object is unable to be created in a pd patch.
I checked my build process with a simple hello world external, and also another external i had made earlier and they both work fine. So it seems there is some issue with using the d_array tabwrite~ code directly in its own file.
Any ideas?
thanks, Matt
one more thing i forgot to add here, is that the only thing i changed from the original tabwrite~ code was replacing "tabwrite" with "tabwrite2".
do you mind sharing your code? Christof

if you want your setup-function to be visible for Pd (so it can find and call it), it must not be static.
you should also run "pd -verbose" AND raise the verbosity in the Pd-console to maximum AND watch the terminal for spurious outputs. chances are, there was an error message saying "unable to find tabwrite2_tilde_setup".

PS: source code is best sent as attachment (and a link to a repository).
Thanks as always Iohannes.
removing static did the trick.
wondering why this works for the original tabwrite~ though?

because the original tabwrite~'s setup function gets called by d_array_setup() which lices in the same compilation unit (aka: source file). d_array_setup() is called, because Pd doesn't use the library loader bootstrapping for initialising it's built-in objects, but calls a hardcoded list of setup-functions.
