[PD] route - pack issue

[Joe White]

Hi list,

I've been doing some patching with [route] and came across a problem - I'd
love it if someone could explain why this happens otherwise I think it's a
bug.

Basically I'm sending a message with one item to a route object with an
argument of the same name. For example:

[start (
|
[route start]

This is connected to a [pack f]. When I bang the start message the route
object outputs a bang, which in turn should output the stored number in the
pack object. However, this does not happen (which is the problem).

If I connect a [t b] after the [route] and before the [pack f] it works. It
also works with [f ] instead of [pack f] and a [select] object will
correctly bang the pack. I've attached a patch to show this.

What seems weird is that it is not a problem with either [route] or [pack f]
on their own, but rather only when they are connected.

Thanks,
Joe
