In our faustgen~ external we were using the following code to start/stop the "dac":

void faustgen::dsp_status(const char* mess)

object_method_typed(dac, gensym("message"), 1, msg, 0);

object_method(gensym("dsp")->s_thing, gensym(mess));

for (box = jpatcher_get_firstobject(patcher); box; box = jbox_get_nextobject(box)) {

printf("object_classname %s\n", object_classname(obj)->s_name);

if ((object_classname(obj) == gensym("dac~"))

|| (object_classname(obj) == gensym("ezdac~"))

|| (object_classname(obj) == gensym("ezadc~"))

|| (object_classname(obj) == gensym("adc~"))) {

This code does not work anymore in Max 7.01, the "check_dac" function correctly discover the "dac" object in the patch, but the "dsp_status" method does not stop it anymore…

dsp_status("stop");
...so some stuff...
dsp_status("start");

void faustgen::dsp_status(const char* mess)
 {
    t_pxobject* dac = 0;

    if ((dac = check_dac())) {
        t_atom msg[1];
        atom_setsym(msg, gensym(mess));
        object_method_typed(dac, gensym("message"), 1, msg, 0);
    } else { // Global
        object_method(gensym("dsp")->s_thing, gensym(mess));
    }
}

t_pxobject* faustgen::check_dac()
{
    t_object *patcher, *box, *obj;
    object_obex_lookup(this, gensym("

    for (box = jpatcher_get_firstobject(patcher); box; box = jbox_get_nextobject(box)) {
        obj = jbox_get_object(box);
        if (obj) {
            printf("object_classname %s\n", object_classname(obj)->s_name);
            if ((object_classname(obj) == gensym("dac~"))
                || (object_classname(obj) == gensym("ezdac~"))
                || (object_classname(obj) == gensym("ezadc~"))
                || (object_classname(obj) == gensym("adc~"))) {
                    return (t_pxobject*)box;
            }
        }
    }

What about this?
https://cycling74.com/forums/stopping-the-dsp-from-inside-an-external/

Basically I'm using the same method as described here :

http://bb-attachments.cycling74.com.s3.amazonaws.com/3984.pg.ghostnoise.c

It does not work, and the code here does not work either:

object_method(gensym("dsp")->s_thing, gensym(mess)); 

Still no answer? Anybody of Cycling74 here?

I confirm that this bug still exists in Max 7.0.2.
