Re: [PD] Force cyclone/gate instead of iemlib1/gate
I dont know how pdmtl is structured, but you can always screw it up and wrap it in a way that doesn't work. Other than that, if you do things in a certain way, considered as "safe" / "correct" or "usual", that libname/objectname syntax will never be a problem. The way it works is that your lib needs to be in a folder that is also in the path. With Pd 0.48-0 we have a new folder for externals suggested by the software which is also suggested to be added to the search path. If you just say yes and ok to everything, all the libraries you download will end up in this external folder that is already in the path, so there won't be any disadvantages in using libname/objectname! cheers 2017-12-04 7:05 GMT-02:00: > Hi. > > Beyond the topic, I wonder also how to know if a library needs "-lib" > option, and for which operating system.

While I fully agree with you, I do believe you are actually helping confuse users by not providing an iemlib build for Linux. If there'd be a canonical build (as opposed to the v0.0-extended one), the mechanism to load the library would be the same on every platform. I even would have done it myself, but I figured with iemilb it's much harder for me to automate the building of Deken packages than with other libraries, so I didn't bother.

Re: [PD] Force cyclone/gate instead of iemlib1/gate
Hi. Beyond the topic, I wonder also how to know if a library needs "-lib" option, and for which operating system. For iemlib, on Xubuntu the "-path" option is enough, on Windows, I need to add "-lib". Hard to follow if it is not the same option between platforms. > Now, with Pd Vanilla, you can set the order your own, or use [declare], but, > again, I just think libname/objectname is easier and more explicit If it is the common way now, it is good to know. Thanks. The order seems not working with "-lib". It seems stronger than a "-path" option. I see the good points of this syntax, but also some disadvantages : - if you download a set of abstractions "lambda" (~ library) and if the syntax inside is "Iambda/objectname", so all help files won't work if you open them directly. It was a strange behavior in the good old "pdmtl" abstractions help files. I like the idea that you can open any objects and help files inside the library folder (like rjdj lib). - In a more logical level, if you declare a "-path /any/path/lambda" option, the library will not work. You need to declare the parent path, which is weird and not suitable if you want to show and declare all libraries that you need in a common declare line. I guess the best practice would be to place all externals inside the same parent folder "~/pd/externals", declare this parent path (by default now) and also declare all externals paths to show the project's dependencies. So you can use the "objectname" alone or with "libname/objectname". + -- Jérôme Abel http://jeromeabel.net http://reso-nance.org ___ Pd-list@lists.iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> https://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list

Sorry, I don't think I understand the issue, or what you mean or ask.

The one that is more reliable (or "correct") to me is libname/objectname, indeed. In the old days of Pd-Extended, libraries would already be loaded by default, and cyclone would come first. That means [gate]instantiates cyclone's instead of iemlib's Now, with Pd Vanilla, you can set the order your own, or use [declare], but, again, I just think libname/objectname is easier and more explicit hope I helped cheers > > > -- > > Mensaje telepatico asistido por maquinas. > > On 12/3/2017 2:18 PM, Jérôme Abel wrote: > > Hi list, > > > > We noticed in the Malinette > > (https://framagit.org/malinette/malinette-soft) that the [gate] > > external from iemlib1 replace the cyclone one (the old version, not > > the beta). > > > > In Linux, I don't need to add "-lib iemlib1" to get [para_bp~] > > external (filter object).

[PD] Force cyclone/gate instead of iemlib1/gate
Hi list, We noticed in the Malinette (https://framagit.org/malinette/malinette-soft) that the [gate] external from iemlib1 replace the cyclone one (the old version, not the beta). In Linux, I don't need to add "-lib iemlib1" to get [para_bp~] external (filter object). But on Windows, I need to add this option and iemlib1 seems stronger (order does not affect this) than cyclone import. The "bad" way woud be to write all objects with [cyclone/gate] but if someone has a better way...
