I’m working on parallelizing a jitter mop algorithm that needs to know the row (y-axis).

From MaxAPI-5.1.1: "[i]f your object performs some kind of spatial operation… you will … need to account for the matrix segmentation used by the parallel utilities"

I thought to store the base pointer in my object and then do something like the following in calculate_ndim:

int start_row = (bop – x->bop) / minfo->dimstride[1];

My question is: is pointer arithmetic a kosher approach? Can I rely on the memory being contiguous, etc.

Cheers,
Chris
