[PD] [text] question

[Liam Goodacre]

The problem is coming from the "read_number_memory" subpatches, where the [text search] and [text set] objects are not linked to a text buffer. I can't tell exactly why this is. Could it be because the creation arguments are confused? ($1 in the [text define] object, $2 in the abstraction).


If not, perhaps you are misunderstanding how the text objects work. The name given in [text define] defines a buffer that other text objects can reference, but it does not point to a specific text file on your hard drive. To open a file from the hard disk, you must send a "read" message to text define. I don't see such a message in your patch, so perhaps this is the problem.

Subject: [PD] [text] question

Hello list

quick question about the [text] object, I have a patch that reads and records a text file. I use various [text] objects in the patch that access the same file, these are placed in abstractions. I have no problems when running the patch and the program works, but when I close the patch I get this error, and I can't figure out why.

text: couldn't find text buffer 'test-GUI-amount.txt'

any ideas?

last part of a 4-week project. So maybe I need a pair of fresh eyes.

Basically, it is a preset system that I am programming, I keep track of how many objects have been created, I am recording this number into a text file. And I am using a single text file for every GUI object that I am using. I don't understand why the error only comes up when closing the patch or deleting the module that contains the objects. The program works as I want it, but I would really wanna get rid of this error.

attached is the file if someone can take a look, I deeply appreciate it. To reproduce the error just open and close the patch. The [text] object is in the
[GUI-creator] module and in the [pd read_number_memory] subpatch in the [cr_gui] abstraction

what is clear is that the error comes from the use of [text] in the [cr_gui] as I have 8 errors and I use 8 instances of this abstraction

cheers
