jpatchline_completeconnection: index out of range.
can someone tell me what this means?
from searching other posts it seems it's something to do with conflicts in the search path, but i can't work out where the problem is.
It happens when you retype an object's arguments so that it reinstantiates itself with less inlets thus breaking a connection. For example create something like a [pack 0 0 0] and patch [number] boxes into all three inlets. Then change the object to [pack 0 0] and you will get this error printed in the max window.
It appears there is a different error message for disconnected inlets and outlets. The outlet message is "jpatchline_new: outlet index out of range".
This can happen when you load a patch containing the [poly~] or [pfft~] objects, especially when copying from the forum as you might not name the subpatches correctly before opening the main patch.

i've sorted it now, it seemed to be some kind of corruption in the file - i deleted a couple of patchlines and then put them back exactly the same, and it stopped it giving these errors on loading.
thanks for explaining it
