Re: [PD] warning: class XXX overwritten - what does it mean?

The strangest thing is that the very same version of GEM can give these errors for example on a Vista machine and not on a Windows XP machine. Isn't it weird? no. it gives the warning with Pd=0.42 and it doesn't give the error with older Pd-versions (in those aged versions, you couldn't overwrite a class) there has been loads of discussion whether this is a bug or a feature (imho, it really is the latter; but it is a rather annoying feature, that probably does more harm than good; but otoh, i have learned to live with it and i can see a lot of potential...) as for worrying: Gem=0.92 should work fine, even if you get these warnings. fmgasdr IOhannes smime.p7s Description: S/MIME Cryptographic Signature ___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list

IOhannes m zmoelnig escribió: no. it gives the warning with Pd=0.42 and it doesn't give the error with older Pd-versions Ouch, yes, I now realise I may have had different Pd versions (though not different gem versions) installed on the different machines. as for worrying: Gem=0.92 should work fine, even if you get these warnings. Great. Just out of curiosity however, what do the warning mean? Well ok, they mean a class has been overridden, but why? The classes mentioned in the error messages (pix_videoDS for example) don't exist in Pd, so it seems like they are defined twice in Gem? I just would like to understand roughly what's going on... thanks m. -- Matteo Sisti Sette matteosistise...@gmail.com http://www.matteosistisette.com ___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list

I just would like to understand roughly what's going on... so basically, if two objectclasses claim the same name, older versions of Pd would just ignore the second attempt to register a class with that name, whereas newer versions will happily give the name to the newer objectclass (but issuing a warning). in Gem some names are used multiple times, because of either inheritance (one objectlcass being derived from other another objectclass; this is C++-talk) or for compatibility reasons (e.g. using deprecated names). it currently does work despite of the warnings, but i would like to get rid of such disturbing matters in the next release. fgmsadr IOhannes smime.p7s Description: S/MIME Cryptographic Signature ___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
