Re: [PD-dev] compiling FLEXT vst~ on Macintosh
Hi Miller, many thanks for the contribution - I think that a lot of people will be happy about it. I can't say if it makes sense to keep compatibility with Carbon plugins - considering that they have never really worked with vst~. Also when i was working on the Mac code of vst~ the main problem was the editor window - i can't really remember but there must still be some code missing to actually handle user interaction (in editormac.hpp). all the best, Thomas Am 07.07.2008 um 22:17 schrieb Miller Puckette: Hi all, For a music production I had to compile vst~ for OSX in Flext.

Re: [PD-dev] compiling FLEXT vst~ on Macintosh
OK, I looked at the editor window stuff and it looks like it needs to be filled out as an interface to the OSX window creation and management code... also, I presume somewhere, someone is drawing stuff on the window, but I couldn't figure out where and how that should happen. I think my next step should be to look at vst~ on a windows machine and try to trace function calls around to see what's happening... yuck!

Yep, I've only tried it in intel mac so far.
