Sorry if this is a repost of a repost, but i can't seem to access any sort of list of gem objects, which is really slowing down my learning of how it works, because i can only find new objects through this board, and the help files for others.

So, can anyone provide me with a list? or a link to one? With object descriptions if possible.

Thank you,

and again i apologise if this is a frequent question.

you can find almost all of the gem objects in Help -> Browser -> 5.references -> Gem

I found a great list of pd objects here.

I patched my Pd to print out all classes created, here's what Gem provides (current CVS version compiled on Linux with most options enabled):

hi ClaudiusMaximus, could you tell us how to patch pd to have this kind of "-verbose" thing ?
thx

in pd/src/m_class.c

add this in class_new():
post("registering class: %s", s->s_name); /* get list of objects */

add this in class_addcreator():
post("registering alias: %s", s->s_name); /* get list of objects */

I added them each just before the call to class_addmethod() in those functions. Of course, you need to recompile Pd to make use of this, and I haven't figured out how to make it respect the -verbose command line flag yet, so you get 100s of lines of output whenever you start Pd.

Just a quick hack..

What is up with the [vertex_draw] [vertx_grid] vertex_whatever classes?

Don't know, I never used them. But they're part of Gem if you "./configure --enable-Vertex", which I did...

with this command :
nm -go Gem.pd_linux | grep ' T ' | grep 'setup' | grep -v '_ZN' | sed -e 's/Gem.pd_linux:...................//' | sed -e 's/_setup//'

It seems that I get all the objects produced by GEM
