The active inlet works fine. However, I don't see an equivalent function call for passive bang inlets similar to creating a passive float inlet, e.g <span style="font-family: Menlo; font-size: 11px; ">floatinlet_new(t_object *owner, t_float *fp);</span></div><div> I have tried using <font face="Menlo" size="2">symbolinlet_new(…)</font><font face="Menlo" style="font-size: 12px; "> </font><font>but cannot seem to get it to recognize a bang without an error, inlet: expected 'symbol' but got 'bang'. I have also tried the </font><span style="font-family: Menlo; font-size: small; ">inlet_new(…) </span>but do not get the desired results.</div><div><font> I'm stuck. If anyone has any suggestions I'd love to hear them. </font></div><div><font>Thanks for the time.</font></div><div><font>Rob Esler</font></div><div><font> </font></div></body></html>
