i'd rather say that tof was making assumptions about private
implementation details of Pd and was exploiting them.
(pretty much all GUI objects do that)

in which case there are two ways to implement your proposal:
- stop all development of Pd and only fix bugs.
OR
- continue development and support all (broken) APIs ever exposed.

i figure from the feature requests you posted in the past, that the
first option is not viable for you.

the second option has a well known predecessor: Microsoft Windows.
i'm pretty sure we do not want to go down *that* road (leaving aside
financial feasibility: you probably need to employ coders to keep that
up and running)

The reason this object stopped working is because newer MacOSX versions 
use address randomization and with 64-bits this can use the whole 64 
bits address range. The object rendering uses pointers as Tk tags and 
formatted those as 32-bit hex values in this case. This worked ok as 
long as all addresses fall into the 32-bit address space (up to 2 GByte) 
but fail when addresses use the full 64-bit address space, as is the 
case with the Mac address randomization.

Hello Alexandre,

thanks, this solved it.

downloaded the package again, I don't know what version I was using,
as I copied the externals from another machine (got a new computer
in the office and I thought I was using the latest)

thanks for the help.

cheers

It actually has. If you search for externals you'll see a new
"0.2.1" version around.

I tested the "old" version (the one that came with extended
0.43) and I had the same issue, but I tried 2.1 and it worked
fine with 0.48-0 in MacOS. Which one did you try?

cheers

[PD] Tcl error with "tof" breakpoints in MAC

[José Rafael Subía Valdez]

Dear list,

I have been trying out the latest version 0.48 and some old externals.
Unfortunately, the [breakpoints] GRAPHICAL object from the "tof" library
spits out this tcl problem:


(Tcl) INVALID COMMAND NAME: invalid command name ".x5808180.c"
while executing
".x5808180.c create rectangle 85 355 281 466  -tags 66d980S -fill grey86
-width 1"
("uplevel" body line 150)
invoked from within
"uplevel #0 $docmds"

this makes Pd unresponsive when I try to close that window too.
the object works fine in Ubuntu 16.04

I do not know if this is a library issue or a Pd thing. the library has not
been updated for a while now, but it is very useful. Does any one know what
seems to be the problem with the object?

tested on mac yosemite 10.10.5
