I'm not sure it's a bug or I'm missing something. I am having problems with oscx objects (Pd version 0.40.3-extended-20080721): I can create [sendOSC] but not [dumpOSC] If I open the helpfile for dumpOSC it usually (but not always!) displays fine but if I try copy/paste to another patch it doesn't work. I tried adding [import]] & [declare] to no avail (closing and opening the file as well as restarting pd in between). I also tried adding oscx to the path but that doesn't stick. I managed to add other directories to the load path and next time I start pd they are there. not when I tried oscx. And the dll files are there in the correct place. Is there some mysterious incantation?
thanks Oded
[dumpOSC] seems to require a port argument, otherwise it will not be created correctly. Thus, you need:
[dumpOSC 9393]
rather than just:
[dumpOSC]
Also, if you try to create a second instance of [dumpOSC] with the same port as an existing instance, the new instance will not be created.
I hope that helps.

this is a canned response: please do not use the old OSCx externals (including [dumpOSC]) as they are known to be broken and only in Pd-extended for legacy reasons. try mrpeach's [udpreceive]+[unpackOSC] instead which is likely to make you a happier human.
