I have a modified version of a patch which contains an autopattr and 

a pattrstorage at the top level. Everytime I send the write message 

to pattrstorage, the file dialogue opens and then either max crashes 

Here's the patch, and the crash log is below.

crash log: truncated so as to get throught to the list - if the rest 

is needed let me know and I can send it direct to C74.

consistent-crash-with-pattrstorage

This isn't crashing for me, but I'm on a PPC. And I'm missing the 

bpatcher subpatch, which may or may not be relevant.

Solved the problem, though ther may still be an issue with pattrstorage.

In the original version of the patch I used [psw.3d] buttons, which 

I've been replacing with ubumenus in normal mode containing a single 

[psw.3d] replaced with [ubumenu] (with only one item in it)

As I use Paste Replace to replace the original objects, the 

connection was still to the first outlet. This meant that clicking 

once on the ubumenu caused two zeros to be sent to the the write 

message to pattrstorage, causing it to be banged twice in quick 

I moved the connection to the 2nd outlet of ubumenu (bang on button 

Is this still a bug though? I can imagine that it's still possible to 

do a double click on a button and send 2 (or more ) bangs to the 

write message box, potentially causing a crash.

I moved the connection to the 2nd outlet of ubumenu (bang on button  
down), which fixed the crashing.

Interesting. As you will have seen, I found the problem. But why 

Does ubumenu behave differently? I'm pretty sure that I'd noticed in 

the past that a single click on an ubumenu containing 1 item sent out 

a single "0" from the first outlet. It now sends out 2 (though I 

think that that is what I originally expected)

Which version of Max do you use? Can you explain the steps to go to  
the crash.

Theoretically, it should. That it doesn't, and instead causes a 

crash, is probably a consequence of thread safety issues on multiple 

processor machines. Will look into it (once I'm on a multiproc 

machine to test!). Thanks for the reports!
