Hello,
I already posted this to the forum, so I hope it's no foible to post
it here as well...
I am building a connector for PD to communicate with an external
application running on another system. I am using netsend to craft UDP
packets that the remote application can parse for actions. The payload
is supposed to look sort of like this:
(STRING,STRING,INTEGER,INTEGER,STRING,INTEGER)
Initially I was unable to get commas into the netsend stream because PD
uses commas as in internal delimiter. I was able to circumvent this by
using the cyclone external's 'sprintf' function. Like this:
|44|
|
|send (STRING%cSTRING%cINTEGER%cINTEGER%cSTRING%cINTEGER) |
|
|netsend|
this almost works, except that pd inserts whitespace characters after
the commas, which the remote application doesn't understand.
I noticed that 'print' actually puts a space before and after the
commas, whereas netsend (or sprintf) only puts one after the commas.
Does anyone know how to circumvent this behavior? Or, perhaps a simpler
way to achieve what I am trying to do?
Thank you.
Florian

There is something you must understand about the Soviet system. They have the
ability to concentrate all their efforts on a given design, and develop all
components simulateously, but sometimes without proper testing. Then they end
up with a technological disaster like the Tu-144. In a technology race at
the time, that aircraft was two months ahead of the Concorde. Four Tu-144s
were built; two have crashed, and two are in museums. The Concorde has been
flying safely for over 10 years.
