(this is on ubuntu 13.10 linux 64 bit / pd 0.45 / mrpeach from svn, but
osX gives the same kind of crash )

iemnet object are not more stable.


there are lot's of thread about this in the list. is there anything new,
or something we can do to avoid crash?


I don't recall any threads about this kind of crash.
It looks like a 64-bit issue. If it really crashes at
x->x_addr = ntohl(*(long *)hp->h_addr);
then possibly the long type is too long or the h_addr field is not a long in 64-bit or h_addr is not properly initialized, so ntohl() looks in the wrong place and segfaults. I never get any such crashes on 32-bit systems, but so far I haven't tried it on 64-bit.



or is there an other solution that would be cross platform (linux, osX,
windows) and would allow a patch to download text file from a server?


You could probably make a single object with pdlua or pyext that does just that.

thanks
cheers
