Hi there,
I've been playing around with libpd the last few months, trying to make a little app that does audio synthesis from some computer vision algorithms. The program is now complete.. The only thing is, it's a little cpu intensive and I'd like to make it more efficient.
Basically, what I'm trying to do now is incorporate the [pd~] object in pd-extra to take advantage of parallelism. I'm writing my code in C++ right now and compiling it on a Linux machine running Ubuntu Studio.
I set up my program and Makefile in a way similar to the pdtest_freeverb c++ example. After some wrangling, everything compiles fine. But when I try to run it,
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
Boo. At this point I try compiling pdtest_freeverb itself. It compiles fine (although I have to add a #include line in main.cpp for usleep). When I run it,
error: signal outlet connect to nonsignal inlet (ignored)
verbose(4): ... you might be able to track this down from the Find menu.
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
So then I try rebuilding libpd. I delete the old one with make clobber and then make with UTIL=true and EXTRA=true. Still no dice. I delete the whole libpd folder from my hard drive and then clone it again from github. I build libpd with a bunch of different combinations of options. I checkout a couple different versions of libpd and do the same. Nothing seems to work - still getting segfaults.
So, I am at a bit of a loss here. I don't know why these segfaults are happening. Any help would be ever so appreciated as I have been stuck on this for a while now.
Here is the output from gdb's backtrace full if that is helpful:
