New subject: Netsend multiple values

17 Mar 2004


      Last attempt:
A question about the netsend object: how to send two coordinates in one
value such as x= 395, y= 693 to a netsend message 395;693?
(see attached patch)
I do not want to use pack, because I receive the data in a terminal by a c++
app.
Can I use makefilename to combine the data in one value?

OK, no I don't think there's any way to get makefilename to do what you
want. And I don't know of any way to do what you want. Perhaps you should
include the information below and repost to the list. But I'm pretty sure
that you can't do this without some manipulation at the receiving end.

Yes, I receive the signal by a c++ program on the other side and I would
like to send the signal from pd in the proper format rather than modifying
it at the other side.
Can pd do that? Maybe with makefilname? But how?
...
You must be receiving it in some sort of script or something right?
Can't
...
...
you just i.e. (Perl) @myArray = split(/ /, $string);
and break them up that way?
...
...
ä, no.
Sorry for being imprecise, I receive the signal not in an other pd, but
in
...
...
...
a terminal window, so I can not use unpack. Any other suggestion?
...

...
Use [pack 0 0] to combine them into one and then [send $1 $2] then use
[unpack 0 0] to separate the messages at the other end.
