hi again,
I have also found out, why creating an object with arguments, but
of an unknown class, results in the next created canvas inheriting
those arguments (remember `whoami' riddle?).
The remedy: a call to canvas_setargs() in m_class.c/new_anything()
should not be made before open_via_path() call, but only after
succesful return from that call. For example:
- canvas_setargs(argc, argv);
if ((fd = open_via_path(dir->s_name, s->s_name, ".pd",
dirbuf, &nameptr, MAXPDSTRING, 0)) >= 0)
{
close (fd);
if (!pd_setloadingabstraction(s))
{
+ canvas_setargs(argc, argv);
binbuf_evalfile(gensym(nameptr), gensym(dirbuf));
or in a similar way.
