[PD] Mac OSX 10.7 resume states crash Pd-extended

[Dan Wilcox]

I tested this with Pd-Vanilla 0.43-0 and there are no problems. The patch windows come up nicely.

I tried to test it with a Pd-Extended-0.43.1autobuild but I keep getting load errors and can't open any patch windows :P Is there a more stable version somewhere?

As for Pd-Extended 0.42.5, there are some options: http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-20083707-263/managing-mac-os-x-lions-application-resume-feature/

You can hold Option when quitting (aka Cmd+Opt+Q ) to bypass the save state mechanism and delete any current states.

You can also disable the state saving by locking the state folder for Pd-Extended itself in ~/Library/Saved\ Application\ State/org.puredata.pd.wish.savedState/ through the Get Info dialog (CMD+I) ...

It finally dawned on me that OSX is trying to load the previous "saved state" since I had CMD-Q'd Pd with windows open. It automatically opens those windows at start. I assume pd is not yet ready for these and crashes due to some init order issue ...
