you should never do that. the idea of [declare] is to express a dependency on a library, rather than to provide an attacker with valuable information about the filesystem layout of the computer you happened to use. it also makes it impossible for "jane doe" to use your patch (unless you want to maintain a list of all users, who are supposed to run the patch, in your patch).

if you want to put libraries into non-standard locations, you should use the preferences's "Path" to search those locations.

the actual entries to the [declare] object should always be relative.

Not always.

wowww if you want to challenge Iohannes on what is a good practice, I think you need better arguments. ;-)

cheers Cyrille

Hi All, I ended up installing extended --womp womp, just to have something working relatively quickly. But will try this on one machine and if it works will re-install on the others. Thanks Lucas for the lay of the land!

Before I forget,

We will fail to load the lib if the path to GEM contains any “white space”, i.e: declare -lib C:/Users/john smith/AppData/Roaming/pd/Gem here: john smith

or

declare -lib C:/Program Files (x86)/pd/extra/Gem here: Program Files (x86)

Report your complete path to the Gem folder. Depending on your report you we can tell if you can use the “-stdlib” switch, so you can just put: declare -stdlib Gem

Hi,

Please also reply to the Pd-list.

First find the “Gem” folder on your computer. This place has been selected by you when you downloaded the external.

In my case is: C:\Users\Lucarda\AppData\Roaming\pd\Gem

Start a new patch and create a [declare] object, like this:

[declare -lib C:/Users/Lucarda/AppData/Roaming/pd/Gem]

note that inside Pd I have changed the windows path “\” with this “/” .

If the object was correctly created you will get this message on the console:

If you don't, you will have to download “msvcr71.dll” and place it on the Gem folder. And restart Pd and create the [declare] object.

Please report if this work, then we will move to the start-up flag if necessary.

This is for Gem/0.93.3

Please note that I'm a regular audio Pd user, this only makes sure that Gem is correctly loaded, I have no experience on video.

Salutti,

Lucarda.

Yes hello, thank you for your clarification and reply! I am indeed not sure how to load GEM.

Remember that you might use -stdlib instead of -lib.

The “std” stands for “standard places Pd will automatically include when searching.”

This known places are Os specific and are explained here:

Ok, now that you installed pdx you could be surprised that now gem works on vanilla.

This is because “msvcr71.dll” was placed on a windows system folder by pdx installer.

For your test on other machines put “msvcr71.dll” in the Gem folder.

Salutti, Lucarda.
