What is the dsp callback?  This is new to me, too.

I had a different approach when it comes to building static arrays
that depend on block size.  I used three variables in the struct,
x->n, x->array_pointer, and x->is_new_or_resized

Then, example use in perform routine:

if (x->n != n)
  x->is_new_or_resized=1;
if (x->is_new_or_resized)
{
  x->is_new_or_resized=0;
  if (x->array_pointer != NULL)
free(x->array_pointer);
  malloc(x->array_pointer, n);
  x->n=n;
}

So, you can see the problem.  It would be useful to know another way.

That's definitely bad practice.
Instead of that you can do the allocation in the "dsp" callback,  
that's where you add your dsp processing to the signal chain. This  
callback will be called anytime when either the block size or sample  
rate changes or when the signal graph is rebuilt.

Re: [PD] Delete scalars

2008-06-14 Thread Miller Puckette
I'm thinking about making a message to "pointer" that deletes the object
after the pointed-to one (thus leaving the pointer itself unchanged) --
the gotch is that it would "stalify" all other pointers to the list, at
least as things are currently implemented.

As far as I know, there's no way at present to do it, short of copying the
entire list out to another window and selectively copying back to the
original one.

Thanks a lot!
Wow, yes that seems to be the case.

Now having some mysteries solved, I can go get some sleep in comfort.
Seriously, you might have just saved my life :)


While you are there, can you please tell me just a bit more?

So, I've made a cache to copy the original signal to before processing.

Because the block size may change anytime, I am malloc & freeing a cache 
the size of the block on each DSP cycle.

I hear that malloc is a "relatively" expensive task.
Is it bad practice to run this each cycle, or is a kilobyte or two not a

Re: [PD] extended on asus eeePC?

2008-06-14 Thread Vincent Rioux

It worked ok for me with the debian distro
http://wiki.debian.org/DebianEeePC
by the way, just a little warning i first tried to install debian on a 
sdhc external card, ran into several pbs and finally this sd card burn 
out (apparently it happened to some other people).
what i would avice then is to install debian on the internal card 
(removing xandros, which you have on the install cd anyway).

i rand pd-extended and supercollider rather smoothly.
best,
vincent




Kevin McCoy a écrit :

I wouldn't recommend doing it with the default Xandros installation if
you are new to Linux.  It is certainly possible but you have to
customize the repositories first, and then probably you'd want to
permanently enable the advanced mode desktop, both of which require
text editing and command line tweaking.  This might sound like jargon
to you but with a month or so of practice you'll have a lot better
grip on it, we've all been there when we were learning Linux.  There's
stuff you have to understand about repositories, packages,
dependencies, and all of that before you can get a good grasp on how
to install pd extended in a customized Linux distribution like the one
Asus provides.  What would be a better choice would be to switch to
something like eeexubuntu for your os and follow standard
documentation for Ubuntu/Debian based operating systems - that way you
get a good base of how-tos + etc floating around on the 'net in case
you have any questions.

So, there are a few of us using the eeepc on this list (I guess me and
Georg, maybe some others too) but like I said, if you want to be able
to follow the multitude of howtos and troubleshooting guides out there
so you can get your problems resolved faster without having to wait
for the slowbies to answer, you'll be better off getting a standard,

the best site for eeepc related matters and has great howto guides you
can follow.

Good luck!!!

i downloaded Hans' .deb installer but when i run it from the xandros desktop
(choosing the option "install debian package" or something like that) i get
an error message and it doesnt go far. both synaptic and apt-get give me a
non-extended pd to install, which i tried, but i really need extended, as
all my patches require it at some point.
can you apt-get install extended? mayb it's just a matter of adding the
right sources?
ideas?

It is just the same as on every other computer.
I use (k)ubuntu on the eee, so all dependencies are easy to install ...

However, I don't know if it is that easy on the default Xandros OS, you
might not have all latest libraries, but you could try it !

Re: [PD] Delete scalars

Try searching the mailing list archives on this one.  I don't think  
it is possible, except for doing it by simlulating mouse motions with

Is there any way to do it ?

Hello all,

I have noticed the the last week or so that there are no Mac  
builds for the nightly stuff. Is there something happening with  
the Mac distro?


Also, when there were things for the Mac, there was also something  
labeled with 'dyn'. Is that another separate distro? When I tried  
to download those things, it came up with a Pd-Extended app, named  
the same as the other Mac version, but when I tried to run it, it  
acted like it was starting, but then just quit. I checked the  
console, but couldn't find any error messages.


Thanks,

Mike

Yeah, that was my mistake, I removed hardware/arduino.pd from the  
nightly builds since it shouldn't be there.  Sorry about that...

[PD] Abstractions search path hirarchy (was: pduino-arduino trouble)

2008-06-14 Thread Max Neupert
hi list,

i found the source of my problem here.
the patch was using the [arduino] abstraction.
i had it located in the same path than my patch (version 0.3), but  
another one (version 0.4) is located in
/Applications/Pd-extended.app/Contents/Resources/extra/hardware/

i've always assumed that pd searches for abstractions first in the  
same directory than the patch is found. that doesn't seem to be the  
case.

for some reason pd sometimes choose to prefer the 0.4 version which  
has a different, non working bitrate set.
i've deleted the abstraction and use it now in a subpatch instead, so  
i am sure no other version is loaded instead.

 well i have a dumb answer: why not use the "length" output of [soundfiler]?

 i think that in this case the philosophy of Pd his, that there are 2
 ways to change the length of a table: do it interactively (e.g. create a
 [table bla 1024] or do it programmatically (e.g. via [; bla resize 216()
 in the first case the author of the software is responsible for using
 (e.g. "hardcoding") the right table-size throughout there patch, in the
 latter case you could just listen to these programmatical changes).
 tables suddenly changing there size are beyond Pd :-)
