[PD-announce] flext 0.3.2 and py/pyext 0.1.0

[Thomas Grill]

Hi all,

py/pyext 0.1.0 - the Python script external has finally become ready-to-use
and
allows the building of full-featured message objects.
You can:
- use multiple inlets and outlets (of course there's no limitation what type
goes into which inlet.....)
- use methods called by tag (like "bang", "float", "list", "hula" ) or inlet
number or both or none of them
- use detached threaded methods
- use send and receive from within the python code
- send messages to the canvas, allowing for dynamic object creation
- reload the scripts anytime in order to concurrently develop and test an
object

The package comes with some example patches and scripts with inline
documentation.
I have yet to check out the real-time behavior of the Python interpreter.

------------------------

flext 0.3.2 - the C++ layer for cross-platform development of PD and MaxMSP
externals.
It's another maintenance release, fixing some important issues with
multi-threading. Also, the zip-file of flext 0.3.1 was somehow corrupt.

Watch out for flext 0.4.0 featuring an object-oriented GUI abstraction layer
