Problems with mxj and standalone app
Hey all,
I’ve created a standalone app that uses mxj objects (specifically maxhole) to communicate over a wireless network. When using the actual .maxpat files, the system works perfectly. However, when the standalone is created, the mxj objects do not work properly. (The Max window indicates that there is a JVM error.) Is this a compiling issue? If so, how do I build the standalone app so that the mxj objects function correctly?
Has anyone else encountered this before?

This is an issue that has been around for a LONG time (and still bugs me that it isn’t fixed) – max.jar isn’t automatically moved into your standalone package, you have to copy it manually. And any custom classes you’ve built, as well, I think. It lives in Cycling ’74: Java: Lib, and while I’m not sure where you’re ‘supposed’ to put it in the standalone package, adding it to the ‘resources’ folder inside the app seems to work OK.
I’m assuming you’re on a mac, by the way.
Yes – I’m on a Mac. Thank you – I was pulling my hair out over this. I had a nasty feeling it was something like this.
Thanks for the heads up on this one.

No problem – now I know I’m not the only one that’ll keep pestering C74 to make this automatic :)
+1 for the automation !!!!
