c/java/javascript – acces MaxObjects

alexyz — Sun, 04 Mar 2012 14:50:19 +0000

Hey,

is it possible to get or send values (not attributes)
of MaxObjects from c/java/javascript externals?

So if I have a number box and I would like to change it to a different value or
just want to get the value it contains at the moment.

Greetings,
Alex

Thanks for the quick reply.

But I really need the acces from externals.
Actually I’m thinking about a storage system done with SQLite. So I really would like to know if one of the APIs is capable sending/retrieving values so they can be stored/manipulated by the database.

In general, do you think a complete data/preset system could be done with SQLite?

Hello,

i’m pretty sure it can be achieved in C, but not at all easily … i’m not experienced with SQL nor with the pattrstorage stuff to tell you more ; you should ask in the dev forum and have a look on http://www.cycling74.com/forums/topic.php?id=36770 as it seems nick rothwell works with SQL …
