Hi,

I've developed an pd external but once inserted in pd, if a signal is generated (even if it's not linked to my external), pd gets a seg-fault and closes... how could I debug this ?!?

any ideia of what could be causing this ?!?

Hi!

I've decided to develop some things in PD. Unfortunately I only will be able to use linux in a couple of weeks, thus I have to work on windows platform. I had no problems on installing PD for windows, but I still haven't succeeded on building my own externals.

I've tried even Dev-Cpp and Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003. I followed the make file steps for NT, but I found out that i just don't have any "pd.lib" file, so the linking doesn't found PD functions, giving errors like: "pique error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _class_new referenced in function _pique_setup"... I have not been successful on compiling PD itself with Visual Studio either.

What I want to know is: what do I need to compile it using visual studio (or Dev-C++)?!? where could I find a precompiled "pd.lib" file?!? Does any one has any Visual Studio .NET 2003 project ready for this task?!?

Thanks

or try flext. that's the only way i had success compiling externals with ms visual c++.

I have tried to avoid flext, thats because I'm already familiar with Pd's terminologies and semantics... but if I do not succeed on linux also I'll have to go for it...

hello, cygwin or mingw are more recommended for compiling pd libraries under winslows

patco

thnks megale.... so I'll try a little more with Dev-C++ (it's bundled with mingwin and cygwin)...

but still, I need pd.lib, which I don't have.... i'll try to compile pd here...
