problem creating objects from external iemlib

AG

hi everyone!

I'm trying to run the patch "Ambisonic_2d_example.pd" from the iem_ambi external. While trying to get it to run, I made some changes to the declare statement. You can find the code below..

I installed the externals needed for this patch through deken and I also set the "-lib iemlib" startup flag in PD.

Unfortunately I get the following errors. As you can see PD fails to create some objects (e.g. fadtodb, rbpq, mull~, dsp). These objects seem to all come from the iemlib which is loaded successfully. I have also checked the /externals/iemlib directory.. the four mentioned object-patches are there.

I am running PD on a VM running Debian 11.7 on a M1 MacBook Pro.

I have been trying to solve this for a couple of hours now.. Does anyone know why it's not working?

Nevermid.. I found the answer.. I had to add the path as you can read below..


You have to add the path -path "install_path"/iemlib (Menue: File: Preferences: Path...: New...).
You have to add the library -lib iemlib (Menue: File: Preferences: Startup...: New...).


  For Windows "install_path" could be:
"C:/Users/xx_ME_xx/AppData/Roaming/Pd" or
"C:/Program Files (x86)/Common Files/Pd" or
"C:/Users/xx_ME_xx/Documents/Pd/externals" or
"C:/Program Files (x86)/pd/extra".

  For Apple OSX: "install_path" could be:
"~/Library/Pd" or
"/Library/Pd" or
"/Applications/Pd.app/Contents/Resources/extra".

  For Linux: "install_path" could be:
"~/.local/lib/pd/extra" or
"~/pd-externals" or
"/usr/local/lib/pd-externals" or
"/usr/local/lib/pd/extra" or
"/usr/lib/pd/extra".

Make sure that you get the desired version of iemlib if there are multiple installations on your computer (-verbose).
