Which code are you talking about ?



What I mean is that you have gotten gridflow to work something like a

These questions, I don't know the answer to, IOhannes set those up. I  
personally think they are gratitious and should be removed.  I think  
we should have:


* distributions
* applications (curently stand-alone products)

And drop frameworks and graphics.

I guess it shows each release if it needs to fill the box.

All libraries that are ready for release should be listed there,  
IMHO.  I don't see a reason to exclude any as long its ready for  
people to download and use.

I think it's the maintenance issue. I can understand the need to flush

although I think sssad is both solid and maintainable already.

 but I know, that many people would love to use sssad or already do but

Ja, that's why I distribute sssad with my lib. It would be nicer to have it as 
a pd-ext standard IMO, so those of us who use it in abstractions can stop 
packaging it.

Are there any objections to me following Hans' guide and adding it? What about 
the Debian packaging issue? I suppose I can do that too if needed ... as well 
as volunteer to be the maintainer. I want to push my patches into pd-ext soon 
anyway.

From what I rememeber, it was excluded because it was non-functional  
the way it was included.  There is a bug that prevents the libdir  
packaging working when the folder has the same name as the abstraction  
in it, i.e. sssad/sssad.pd.  T

This works with binary externals.

As for alternate ways of including things besides libdirs, there are  
lots of kludges currently in Pd-extended.  I've been spending a lot of  
my time maintaining them.  I'm working on reducing maintenance time so  
I can actually spend time coding new things.  So far, only a couple  
people have a track record of actually maintaining code in Pd-extended  
without me needing to get involved (Martin Peach, Matju, Roman,  
IOhannes, I'm probably missing someone).


So I think the way forward is to make it easy for people to distribute  
their own libraries on their own, and make them really easy to install  
and use.  Pd-extended 0.42.5 and Pd-vanilla 0.43 have big improvements  
in that regard, so people should try that path first (i.e. package as  
libdir, make the libdir usable when dropped into the standard user  
install paths in the FAQ, etc.)

2010-09-18 Thread Hans-Christoph Steiner


The short answer is because no one has done the work.  The long answer  
involves me being overwhelmed with maintenance work and am now instead  
reshaping how libraries get distributed.  These days, I'm spending  
more time to make it easier for people to make and distribute their  
own libraries, and then to make it easy to install and use libraries.


But for those who are interested in taking on the addition and  
maintenance of libraries in Pd-extended, I've started to write up some  
notes of my own process for people to guide their libraries thru if  
they are interested.

  frank, that does sound like a source of this error.  i think the problem is
  though, that the sssad
  abstraction is now included in pd-extended.  so the included version would
  need to be modified in order for it to work.
 
 pd-extended could rename the path it's installing sssad.pd in, but
 that would break old patches using the sssad/sssad name to specify
 the object. Renaming sssad.pd would break even more patches. 
 
 IMO the libdir loader or whatever is doing the recursive loading has
 to be modified. 

As a workaround for now I would recommend to add extra/sssad to your
Pd search path in the traditional way: -path .../extra/sssad and
then use [sssad] as object name. (I don't think, much is gained by
having to include a prefix like sssad/ to a library that just
includes a single classname anyway.)

Re: [PD] sssad in pd-extended [was: Re: [PD-announce] Pd-0.40.3-extended-rc2 released]

2008-06-30 Thread hard off
As a workaround for now I would recommend to add extra/sssad to your
Pd search path in the traditional way: -path .../extra/sssad and
then use [sssad] as object name. (I don't think, much is gained by
having to include a prefix like sssad/ to a library that just
includes a single classname anyway.)

that still doesn't work here.

moving sssad and the associated files out of the enclosing folder, directly
into the extra folder doesn't help either.



this is reallly making me sssad ;.(

Did you also remove the default loading of sssad in the preferences? I
don't know how pd-extended specifies it (I don't use pd-ext.), but
probably some option with -lib sssad or -libdir sssad or so. You
should remove that and only use -path /extra/sssad

as far as i can see, there is only the 'path' flag, and changing that does
not fix the problem.  only changing the actual name of the sssad.pd file
works.

Okay, that's serious: -path then seems to be broken in pd-extended,
too. I guess, Hans would appreciate a bug report.

(If you want to rename something, don't rename sssad.pd, rename the
directory.)

[PD] sssad in pd-extended [was: Re: [PD-announce] Pd-0.40.3-extended-rc2 released]

Hallo,
hard off hat gesagt: // hard off wrote:

 by the way,  if i just type gibberish into an object box (eq.  [brrgghh]  )
 then pd only takes about a second to see that as unidentified object and
 gives me dotted red lines around the object box.
 
 i have no idea why sssad would be acting this way.

I remotely remember from some past mail here that the libdir loader
doesn't handle objects in libraries that have the same name as the
library gracefully. You could try to rename sssad.pd to something
else, (like ssad.pd) and check if you can create both [sssad/ssad]
and [ssad] objects. If you can, then that problem still remains.

frank, that does sound like a source of this error.  i think the problem is
though, that the sssad
abstraction is now included in pd-extended.  so the included version would
need to be modified in order for it to work.

pd-extended could rename the path it's installing sssad.pd in, but
that would break old patches using the sssad/sssad name to specify
the object. Renaming sssad.pd would break even more patches. 

IMO the libdir loader or whatever is doing the recursive loading has
to be modified.
