redefining "in#" variables in [codebox~]
ok, idk if I'm the one missing something but this is the situation:
I'm working on a Virtual Instrument VST plugin with RNBO using the [codebox~] object. I'm using a bit complicated equations so I'm redefining the "in#" variables to new variables with other variable name, something like this:
As a programmer, in other languages this makes sense. But, as you can see in the prev screenshot, when I finish making this changes I get these errors:
I don't understand why... so then I decided to do this:
And It does compiles with no problems at all...
In this post the example code is oversimplified, but now imagine trying to use this equation:
As you can see in this equation there are many variables and translating it to code would be hard to keep up to the variables if I use "in2" in every instance of "m", for example.
Why is this a problem in codebox~? is there a way to redefine the "in#" variables with other variable name?
even if I follow the error suggestion to use "this.in#" instead of "in#", it still throws an error, and a more complicating one!
So what I kinda understand from this error is that it's trying to look for a "in#" variable in the current RNBO patch? how does the "this" statement work in RNBO and [codebox]?
for now I'll have to use it without defining new variables for easy readability, but I want to know if this is intended and I'm missing something? or, is this just a bug?
this works for me:var a = in1;
var b = in2;
var c = a+b;
out1 = c;
oh, thanks! I had to declare them... why didn't I think about that 😅
weird... I tought that the [codebox] in [rnbo~] had the same logic as the [codebox] in [gen~]
According to the RNBO Codebox and Codebox~ Reference (beginning of the second paragraph): ‘Unline [sic] Gen, variables must be declared with var, let, or const, and functions must be declared with the function keyword.’
