hello...
i'm using a mac with pd-extended with the addition of pdj, gridflow...

i've been at PD for about a week...
i've been able to install and use the pdj library...
i've been playing with the examples...

here's the question: what are they types allowed for inputs for both javascripts and java?

namely, i'm getting "error: pdj: don't know how to handle atom! type=5" when reading in a text file that has a line that has commas... so, does anyone know what type 5 is?

thanks.

...follow up.

looking at the 'type_handler.c' in pdj-0.8.7 source code, the function "atom2jatom" seems to have a dispatch for 'null', 'symbol', and 'float'... the error mention previously is the default case (line 99).

the failure is from sending the following message:
[list var features = "item1=x,item2=y,item3=z"(
that was a static message in a pd-file...

when the pd file was closed and opened, the message was changed to add spaces after each comma, as in:
[list var feature = "item1=x, item2=y, item3=z"(

based on this change, it would seem that the type=5 issue might be an array...? so, why doesn't the other function "jatoms2atoms" get invoked? isn't that supposed to handle arrays?

interesting...

where did you hear of C+ ?... did you mean C#? C++ was supposed to be an incremental step above C. is that the C+ you mean?
