[GEM-dev] Lua an GEM

[Wesley Smith]

I've only dabbled with GEM about 4 years ago, so please pardon my
ignorance here.  I found the signal for context destruction here:

 void gemhead :: outputRenderOnOff(int state)
  164 {
  165   // continue sending out the cache message
  166   t_atom ap[1];
  167   SETFLOAT(ap, state);
  168   outlet_anything(this->m_out1, gensym("gem_state"), 1, ap);
  169 }
  170


What exactly happens in a patch when this executes?  Does a "gem_state
0" message propagate through the gemhead chain to all objects
connected?  What is the normal message that passes through this chain?

thanks,
wes
