"PLEASE DON'T DO THAT"
I would say so :-)

control connections do not force a new dsp call, so I dunno.
Pd objects are (unfortunately) not notified on connection changes and I can't think of a sane way to work around this. The real solution would be to add an API for object state change notifications. In the meantime, I would say: forget about it.

    It doesn't have to be. You can certainly change the delay line
    during runtime, just like in [receive~], [throw~], [tabsend~],
    [tabreceive~], etc.

I thought so, but let me just get something straight, is it possible to force a global dsp call or not? Should it always be avoided at all costs?

Cause I'm now facing another issue, I have a [del~ in] object spitting a unique delay name, and when I connect it via a control cord to a [del~ out] object I want it to spit out the delay name symbol. I made it spit it out when there's a new dsp call, but.... control connections do not force a new dsp call, so I dunno.

I ask because I'm still thinking about strategies involving dsp calls and it'd be good to get a final word if that's a "PLEASE DON'T DO THAT" :)

    Done: https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/issues/1274

    I might do a PR when I have some time.

Thanks, and I'll look into the way  [receive~] and the like work to try and incorporate it in my external, I can also try a PR if you don't beat me to it in a quite probable better way.
