C++ to Max
I have a piece of code written in C++, I am not a C++ coder and I am a novice at Max. Can max 7 take c++ directly Its a C++ function that creates a file in a special format for a piece of hardware.
Short answer: No.
For someone with a bit of experience in programming, the C++ code could be wrapped inside some additional code to build an external. But you would also need to work with the Max/MSP SDK and understand either XCode (Mac OS) or some flavor of Visual Studio (Windows), and from what you write, this is probably outside your comfort zone.
I am an odd one I use VBAccess a lot but not much else ok I will start from fresh in max 7, I assume there are many options to create a text file.
