[PD-dev] External to monitor instantiation of objects

[Tedb0t]

Greetings all,

I am looking for a way to create an external that outputs the name, number of inlets and outlets every time an object in a patch (or perhaps anywhere?) is instantiated. I'm aware of obj_ninlets and obj_noutlets and other functions in m_obj.c, but I need a hook that gets called whenever an object is initialized so I can grab its information.

If anyone has any pointers, I would be most grateful :) :)

Thanks in advance!
