-dyn~ - dynamic object management for PD

-

-Copyright (c)Thomas Grill (xovo@gmx.net)

-For information on usage and redistribution, and for a DISCLAIMER OF ALL

-WARRANTIES, see the file, "license.txt," in this distribution.  

-

-

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

-

-You will need the flext C++ layer for PD and Max/MSP externals to compile this.

-see http://www.parasitaere-kapazitaeten.net/ext

-

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

-

-The package should at least compile (and is tested) with the following compilers/platforms:

-

-pd - Windows:

--------------

-o Microsoft Visual C++ 6: edit "config-pd-msvc.txt" & run "build-pd-msvc.bat" 

-

-

-pd - linux:

------------

-o GCC: edit "config-pd-linux.txt" & run "sh build-pd-linux.sh" 

-	additional settings (e.g. target processor, compiler flags) can be made in makefile.pd-linux

-

-

-pd - MacOSX:

------------

-o GCC: edit "config-pd-darwin.txt" & run "sh build-pd-darwin.sh" 

-	additional settings (e.g. target processor, compiler flags) can be made in makefile.pd-darwin

-

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

-

-CHANGES:

---------

-

-0.0.2:

-- give the dyn~ subcanvas a name (hard to access - for the wild scripters out there),

-	so that it is different from the canvas where dyn~ is in

-- corrected names of message in- and out-proxies.

-- manually retrigger DSP after loading an abstraction

-

-0.0.1:

-- send loadbangs for loaded abstractions

-- now use "dsp" message to enable dsp in sub-canvas (no need of canvas_addtolist, canvas_takefromlist any more)

-

-

-0.0.0 - initial cvs version

-

-

-

-TODO:

---------

-- support message boxes (do we need them?)

-- Hash table for object tags
