[PD] Problem with lists and data

[Thomas Mayer]

Hi there,

while developping my CouchPdb library I came up with the following problem:

I put out lists like this:

list _id 1
list pitch 440

Now I am trying to get the values for _id and pitch as floats, but that 
does not seem to work:

[couchdb]
|
[list trim]
|
[route _id pitch]
\       |
  \      |
[f]   [f]

But I am always getting the message:

error: inlet: expected 'float' but got '1'

When I try to use [symbol] instead of [f], I get a similar error message.

In my object I do the following:

t_atom out_data[2]
SETSYMBOL(&out_data[0], gensym(key));
SETFLOAT(&out_data[1], json_object_get_double(val));
outlet_list(data_outlet, &s_list, 2, &out_data[0]);

What am I doing wrong?

Best regards,
Thomas
