[PD] Pass External Argument as Output on Creation

[christof.ressi at gmx.at]

Can you tell what do you want to achieve exactly? How do you know that the object you want to pass the data to already exists? Couldn't you use something like an 'init' method together with loadbang or initbang to pass the argument to other objects in a deterministic way? This would seem much safer to me...
If you really want to do it on creation time, just pass the argument(s) to your outlet(s) right in the new-method. Again, not sure if that's a good idea at all!

Hi all,

Quick question for C folks: what’s the best way to pass an arg (e.g. [object 2]) to an outlet immediately on creation? Curious to know if I’m going about this in the most efficient way possible.

Cheers!

Ricky
