I'm currently handling this in class_new, because this is where also the additional creators for abtractions and single-object-per-binary externals are added. but actually you're right: the extra creator is only registered for the "main" class name, but not for aliases added via class_addcreator. so after loading iemlib, you can do [iemlib/init] but not [iemlib/ii], while [ii] of course works.
note that this is actually also an issue with single-object-per-binaries libraries which use class_addcreator. so I agree that it would be good to handle the automatic alias creation in class_addcreator. I will have a look. Gesendet: Sonntag, 12.

If a [declare -lib foo] is nested somewhere in [myAbstraction], wouldn't this algorithm erroneously add a "myAbstraction/foo" creator? -Jonathan _______________________________________________ Pd-list@lists.iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> https://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
