what could be the causes that shmem fails to allocate the memory? could not allocate shmem memory Id : 1234, size 60 thanks max ___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
Re: [PD] shmem shared memory allocation fails
Hello, usually, it's because the program that allocate memorry did crash. So the memory is not free and can't be allocated by anyone else. possible solution are : -reboot - change mem Id - manually free the memory : ipcrm shm 1234 on a terminal cheers c Le 10/07/2013 22:27, Max a écrit : what could be the causes that shmem fails to allocate the memory? could not allocate shmem memory Id : 1234, size 60 thanks max ___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list ___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
Re: [PD] shmem shared memory allocation fails
ok thanks for the explanation. Another question: If i want to have a flexible memory size, would you recommend to reserve a huge amount of space (60) just in case, or could I try to create the shmem object in the right size with dynamic patching? m.

Re: [PD] shmem shared memory allocation fails
hello, 60 float is 2.4Mo. It's not a huge amount of space. So 1st solution should work, and should be easier than 2nd solution. if your question is a subtitle way to ask for an "allocate" message, then well... It's on my list. but i will not have time soon to work on that. but anyone is free to help ;-) cheers c Le 11/07/2013 21:56, Max a écrit : ok thanks for the explanation.
