to exist in any headers; but there’s an intload() which isn’t
documented, but which has an extra argument. (intload() seems to call
lowload(), if the stack traces littering the online forum are
accurate.) Have my docs and headers drifted out of sync?

(More generally, I’m a little confused about the state of the SDK.
The most recent document I can find is “WritingExternal34.pdf”, but
I’m using something called “MaxMSP UB SDK” dated April 2006.)

The document in that is Revision 12 (August 2005). The document I
have is Revision 12 (December 2003). I am accordingly confused about
the meaning of the word “revision.” Neither document mentions intload().

However, intload() seems to do the job – it loads a patcher (and
substitutes #-arguments) but the patcher is not presented in a window
(which is fine – this is what I want).

There’s no documentation in the UB SDK itself, apart from a pointer
to the C’74 wiki, which contains the (somewhat essential) articles by
David Z. about Xcode, Frameworks and other Apple magic.

As an aside, once you get used to it, developing and debugging Max
externals using Xcode is not too painful. I just keep trying to drive
it as if it were Eclipse…

That’s right, I didn’t find eclipse’s features like code collapsing, code completion and refactoring in xcode. Could there be somewhere I forgot to look?
