I'm befuddled by the following demonstration code. It's supposed to work, yet, something isn't right:

1. The number of inlets is 2 instead of 3 as requested

2. Any float number coming in incorrect (massive numbers)...

#include "ext.h"
#include "ext_obex.h"

typedef struct _demo {
    t_object ob;
    void *ob_proxy;     // inlet proxy
    long ob_inletnum;   // # of inlet currently in use

    // params
    float param0;
    float param1;
    float param2;
} t_demo;


// method prototypes
void* demo_new(t_symbol* s, long argc, t_atom* argv);
void demo_free(t_demo* x);
void demo_float(t_demo *x, float f);

// global class pointer variable
static t_class* demo_class = NULL;


void ext_main(void* r)
{
    t_class* c = class_new("demo", (method)demo_new,
                           (method)demo_free, (long)sizeof(t_demo), 0L,
                           A_GIMME, 0);

    class_addmethod(c, (method)demo_float, "float", A_FLOAT, 0);

    class_register(CLASS_BOX, c);
    demo_class = c;
}


void* demo_new(t_symbol* s, long argc, t_atom* argv)
{
    t_demo* x = (t_demo*)object_alloc(demo_class);

    if (x) {
        outlet_new(x, NULL); // outlet

        // inlet proxy
        x->ob_inletnum = 0;
        x->ob_proxy = proxy_new(x, 2, &x->ob_inletnum);

        x->param0 = 7.0;
        x->param1 = 500.0;
        x->param2 = 250.0;

        post("x->param0: %f", x->param0);
        post("x->param1: %f", x->param1);
        post("x->param2: %f", x->param2);
    }
    return (x);
}

void demo_free(t_demo* x) {
    object_free(x->ob_proxy);
}


void demo_float(t_demo *x, float f)
{
    switch (proxy_getinlet((t_object *)x))
    {
    case 0:
        post("param0 f: %d", f);
        break;

    case 1:
        post("param1 f: %f", f);
        break;

    case 2:
        post("param2 f: %f", f);
        break;

    default:
        error("demo_float switch out-of-index");
    }
}

Any help to clear this mystery would be really appreciated.

I'm befuddled by the following demonstration code. It's supposed to work, yet, something isn't right:
1. The number of inlets is 2 instead o

mystery-float-inlet-spewing-garbage

(1) for the inlets:// inlet proxy                  
x->ob_proxy_2 = proxy_new(x, 2, NULL);
x->ob_proxy_1 = proxy_new(x, 1, NULL);

remember to free both proxies now...

(2) for the incorrect float number:
just change:
void demo_float(t_demo *x, float f) 
to:
void demo_float(t_demo *x, double f)

You won't believe how much time I wasted trying to figure out this one (-:

You won't believe how much time I wasted learning all these little Max/MSP idiosyncrasies... ;)

You are more than welcome, Shakeeb!
