Hello all,
I had previously released a small abstraction of a visual keyboard for
Pd (see:
http://forum.pdpatchrepo.info/topic/8584/keyboards-gui-for-midi/1 ), but
I had tested it only on Linux. Now, I got some reports from Windows
users that they can't create [moonlib/absolutepath] on their system,
which I used in that abstraction. They get the following error message:
...couln't create {new line} load_object: Symbol "absolutepath_setup"
not found.
We did some troubleshooting, and here is what we found:
- [import moonlib] does not make any difference
- nor does using [moonlib/absolutepath] instead of [absolutepath]
- they are able to create other moonlib externals, such as [image],
[mknob], etc.
- the last line of the source code for absolutepath says /* NOT _WIN32
*/ but the problem is present on Windows 64-bit
Has anyone else encountered this problem? And does anyone know a
solution to it?
Cheers,
Gilberto Agostinho
