Hi,

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

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; } } }

return 0; }

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…

Any idea? It there any new way to start/stop the DAC in an external?

Thanks.
