i get a strange message when writing a file with pattrstorage :

it only appears the first time i write the file.

pattrstorage-strange-error

I don't see this, but then again, I have no idea if I am using the same version of Max, on the same platform, or anything relevant like that. Maybe you could provide some more info and a small patch which demonstrates the issue, with numbered steps?

sorry for the lake of details, but i can't reproduce it in a simple patch.

i simply wanted to know what in the code triggers this message...

for the information, i'm on max 5.0.7 OSX 10.5.7.

There's code in pattrstorage to "watch" the most recent read or written file for changes, if the @autowatch attribute is enabled. If changes are made, the file is automatically reloaded.

The error you see indicates that a bad file or filename was given to this filewatcher. However, without reproducing the problem, I will have a hard time figuring out how this is happening.

If you come up with a series of steps to cause it to occur, please let me know.
