hi, i'm having the trouble of max crashing whenever i unload my external, 

i think it is an issue of me incorrectly attempting to free some proxies. 

am i unclear on the syntax or is there something i'm overlooking? any 

(also i notice that there is now a development forum, is it inappropriate 

to ask these kinds of questions over the main list?)

    setup((t_messlist**)&comb_class, (method)create_object,

(method)destroy_object, (short)sizeof(t_comb), NULL, A_DEFLONG,

    t_comb *mo = (t_comb*)newobject(comb_class);

    mo->t_proxy[3] = proxy_new(mo, 4, &mo->InletNum);

    mo->t_proxy[2] = proxy_new(mo, 3, &mo->InletNum);

    mo->t_proxy[1] = proxy_new(mo, 2, &mo->InletNum);

    mo->t_proxy[0] = proxy_new(mo, 1, &mo->InletNum);

    mo->allocsize = mo->size = mo->index = mo-> index2 = 0;

code examples
----
here i predeclare them:

typedef struct _comb{
 	t_pxobject x_obj;
 	void *t_proxy[4];
 	float *data;
 	float *data2;
 	long InletNum;
 	long index;
 	long index2;
 	long allocsize;
 	long size;
 	float A;
 	float B;
 	float C;
 	long Delay;
 	long samperms;
  } t_comb;

void main (void)
  {
 	setup((t_messlist**)&comb_class, (method)create_object,
         (method)destroy_object, (short)sizeof(t_comb), NULL, A_DEFLONG,
         A_NOTHING);

 	t_comb *mo = (t_comb*)newobject(comb_class);
 	mo->t_proxy[3] = proxy_new(mo, 4, &mo->InletNum);
 	mo->t_proxy[2] = proxy_new(mo, 3, &mo->InletNum);
 	mo->t_proxy[1] = proxy_new(mo, 2, &mo->InletNum);
 	mo->t_proxy[0] = proxy_new(mo, 1, &mo->InletNum);

void destroy_object(t_comb *mo)
  {
 	free(mo->data);
 	free(mo->data2);
 	freeobject(mo->t_proxy[4]);
 	mo->data = mo->data2 = NULL;
 	mo->allocsize = mo->size = mo->index = mo-> index2 = 0;
 	dsp_free(&(mo->x_obj));
  }

You are freeing a piece of memory you don't own.

Ah, this is good to realize, unfortunately i have tried this and also tried it again just now, but the external continues to give me this same problem. What else could i be doing wrong?
